Create a Didgeridoo
Difficulty: Need an adult for this one!
Materials Needed:
- one piece of 2 1/2" PVC pipe (the hardware store can cut this
for you)
- One block of bee's wax (try your local coop - you probably don't
want to harvest this yourself)
- One piece of medium grain sandpaper

Instructions:
Lightly sand the outside of the pipe.

Melt the beeswax in a double boiler or crock pot and use a dull knife to

cool, start playing. |
