From the last blog I thought of using the kalimba instrument as my reference. I decided to use metal as the material which will make sonic vibration in some way it will get a longer vibration of the sound. I got a metal oil can from my work which will serve as the base, then I'll have the metal rods in the 3D labs which is the vibrating sound that will make of it.
I cut a hole in the metal oil can in order to put the metal rods inside but I decided not to go with that process since it wouldn't make much sound when it's plucked.
I just went to making the metal rod on top of the oil can just like the kalimba. I cut different size of metal rods in order to have different sounds when it's plucked. I also thought of cutting a hole on the face of the can near the bottom and tie the metal rods with some rope that goes to the holes and at the end it's tied up to a stone or any object that's heavy. It would be a complicated instrument but I would check first if it's going to work out for me and to think if it's rather important to have it or not.
