Awesome.

[@millerprj]

Great job! I felt like was sitting right there with you in your shop listening to the fire crackle in the stove. Gotta make me some bones now!

Thanks for watching Paul, I wish you were here by the fireside!

Thanks for this 🖤

[@WhirledPeasFursure]

Great vid,, thanks, I enjoyed it and especially your music...

[@teilhardfrost4422]

Thanks! I made the music using all the instruments I was teaching for that online school (which has since gone under) The tunes in my shop were on a great old tape of 'Great Canadian Fiddling' which has also, sadly, been eaten by my tape deck.

This was fun to watch. Did you ever try it with dogwood? I imagine its characteristics would lend themselves very well to rhythm bones

[@teilhardfrost4422]

What we refer to as 'dogwood' here in Ontario is a bush with red bark which doesn't, as far as I know, get big enough to make bones! But I will keep my eye out and see if I can find some large enough for the job.

What is the typical Width and length of the rattle bones ?

[@teilhardfrost4422]

The width is typically around 1.25 inches, the length is determoned by closing your middle finger onto your palm, then measuring the length from that point you can reach (spiderman style!) to the tip of your middle finger. For me that's about 6.5 inches.

[@teilhardfrost4422]

Thank you! I made the music primarily using the instruments I teach at the Omnis School
