    You can’t be serious. Wind chimes are musical. Beautiful. It’s sad that you can’t enjoy them.

    Hi 5937824,
    The longer the pipes, the lower the pitch. They’re very tricky to tune. The striker has to have enough mass to bend the entire pipe in a single curve to best hear the fundamental tone.

  11. GreggPayne says:

    Thanks. They’re a very similar scale as western bell towers.

    i like the sounds of theese chimes they sound better than the small high pitched chimes. how do you change pitch cause my grandmother has smaller chimes that sound like this whitch matereals are best to achive lower quieter calmer pitch.

    Wow, so beautiful! They should be in a clock as the chimes before the hour bell tolls the hour.

    How heavy are they? Do you sell these? If so what are the price ranges? Do you have a website for these?

  15. GreggPayne says:

    Thank you, Zunidoll. I make them in many different pentatonic scales. The pipes are schedule 40 6160 aluminum. The lengths all vary depending on the tuning and the batch of pipe.

    NICE JOB. Who made this and with what materials? How long was each pipe?

    Any noise sounds soothing to me as long as it is the air causing it and not some punk kicking garbage around on the street
