	I made my instrument by nailing three pieces of wood together and then my whole family helped me paint the wood. My Dad helped me cut the copper pipe and drill holes in the pipe. We cut the pipe into different lengths. I put hooks in the wood and hung the pipe from the hooks with string.
My instrument makes sound when I hit the pipes to make them vibrate. When you hit the taller tubes the pitch is lower and when you hit the shorter tubes the pitch is higher.
