The Xylophone I Made From Scratch

Watch as I make a full sized walnut wood xylophone from scratch.

Chronologically, the frame was I actually designed and made first and most of the footage from it's construction got lost. The frame was also one of the first woodworking projects that I've done, which explains the joinery on it... anyways.

My god its amazing

Sorry I didn't quite understand could you make another one 👍

[@sterob09]

thank you for sharing... a quite a high resonate metallic sound from the walnut.. impressive ..you could perhaps continue to explore other exotic woods on your frame using wenge for example or padauk.. or perhaps build a deep box as a traditional 60s xylophone like the one i own ..a vintage rosewood xylophone the sound is amazing

The fact that it's made out of wood and I build other stuff out of wood makes me also think that I could make this precision instrument

I say go for it! It was a lot of fun to build and at the end of the day you’ll have a beautiful instrument to play
