      Oh my, that’s a neat project idea. I imagine it’s quite hard tuning the individual flaps to their correct frequency but that’s something I’d absolutely try

        You don’t gotta start from scratch, there’s a template you can print and glue up!

        The instructions on that page are pretty much inscrutable, so follow this instructable instead. My friend and I did this about 20 or so years ago when we were in high school and still barely knew how to use tools. It took a couple of weekends. If you know what you’re doing, this is probably a short weekend project.

        I’d totally try my hand at making these again, but I learned that I have no percussion talents whatsoever, and that I should stick to wind instruments.
