Re: Singing pipes


Very interesting comments everybody. We have a slightly different
method of construction in these parts - usually galvanised
iron drainpipes (very similar size to the glass ones you are
describing)

Regards, Derek

PS I noticed 4 from NZ in the recent readers survey. Who are you??
Just curious!!

Greetings everyone! I saw an advertisement a while ago about a
singing pipe. You place a pipe that has a wire mesh inside of it over a
bunsen burner. When you remove the pipe from its heat source, it lets
off a tone/moan.
