On another musical note, if you can get that wind whistling culvert pipe of yours to sound anything like Fred Morrison’s low D whistle, then I’m going to dig up my new drainage and build one… https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d6jh1vqNvMs
The culvert pipe gives a deep, snoring note like a didgeridoo, Tamati. But I have an 85mmx 1.5m length of downpipe with slots cut in it and that sounds very like Morrison’s whistle.
Much cheaper than culvert pipe, too.
The pipes organs have been a bit delayed while I build a rifle, but that’s finished now so the next stage is to fit piano strings to the pipes.
Fingers crossed…………
I always wished I had some sort of artistic talent but that was Medusa’s area. Me, I love to make numbers dance!
