Bull Roarer? Did you ever make one?
Swing it about your head , make cool noise? Crocodile Dundee whirled one about, made a cool sound in movie number one.

I made one (Old guys do not have very much entertainment). Swung it about my head, made a nice sound, but not much body. My little girl (almost forty) tried it. She got a better sound than I did. George (big strong son) when he whirled it got no sound at all.

Some day if you are really bored. Make one, swing it. Report back to me.

1. A didjeridoo(sp?)?
Never made one. Used one once - to the amusement of an actual Aussie.

2. Australian
on the internet told me how to make one. Very basic. A piece of wood about eighteen inches long ,two inches wide and one quarter inch thick. Attach four feet or so of string to one end of wood. Instant "Bull Roarer". I played around with different shapes sizes weights..Cool way to WASTE TIME!

Google Bull Roarer..Very interesting..Any Music Majors here?
