  • is the tube open on both ends?

  • Yes, both ends open. Normal convection flow needed for work.

  • Nobody knows how it works. But it is easy to build!

    Simply place a heater in 1/4 from bottom of tube.

    And "POWER UP"!

  • do you need special material for the heater?

  • @sifun095 i hope you're joking

  • convection flow makes white noise in tube, and mesh mounted inside "choose" one frequency and gain it up, i think

  • how do you hold the heater in place??

    plz respond

  • @29379. Lord Rayleigh explained how this works in 1878.

  • the quartz is vibrating the air around it.....the glass tube is picking up the vibrations and turning them into sound.....simple

  • I want to make one myself any suggestions how i should get the gauze in?
