thing 6: egg whistle
February 7th, 2008
A whistle made from an eggshell, fimo clay, and a straw. It sounds like this.

With my egg and the earlier turnip whistle, I tried poking some holes in the body to make an ocarina, but I found that it just stops whistling unless I cover the holes. On the other hand, the soda can ocarina worked just fine, relatively speaking. Are there any ocarina experts out there who can shed some light on this?
During February 2008 I made a new handmade instrument each day.
