Rivin2 Cylindraphone
The Cylindraphone is what I call it. It is an Idiophone:( an instrument the whole of which vibrates to produce a sound when struck, shaken, or scraped, such as a bell, gong, or rattle.)
it is made from an old propane tank, the kind you use on your grill. the top and bottom are welded together, and tongues of various lengths and widths are cut into the upper side. it is laboriously tuned, and when its done just right, it is AWESOME! Believe me, each of my Cylindraphones are ONE OF A KIND. You won’t find another like it anywhere!

This is the second Cylindraphone I designed in the Riven style. it is deeply etched top and bottom and playable tongues both top & bottom. like a two for one, almost. again its a one of a kind for sure.
