Clever & funny, but I suspect some of the sounds were dubbed on, as some of the 'instruments', e.g. the hosepipes with holes in, could hardly have produced the sound they 'contributed'.

I guess the sound of a circular saw would be the most common sound from my shed.

Tom,

The 'Hose Pipe' actually had a Clarinet mouthpiece so the 'holes'
produced the notes similar to the 'horn' of a bagpipe. Music for
the bagpipe is written in the key of A - ONLY. The Drones of the
bagpipe are the only tunable pipes.

The 'Hose Pipe' gave a good effect of a Clarinet.

Sorry Tom :oops:

I should've known better. Of course you're familiar with
bagpipes - duh :!: The new medications I'm taking seem
to have an effect on my perceptiveness of what I'm reading
and trying to say back.

Anyway - as a side note - do you know the name of another
instrument that only plays music in the key of "A" :?:
(HINT It has been around for many, many years and
provides amusement to children of all ages.)
