How Do You Make A Tubulum?

It's not very hard to make a tubulum with ordinary material. Most of things required can be manufactured at home or they can be purchased at any hardware store. All you need are around fourteen three feet long tubes of ABS or PVC, to flat wooden planks to make the top, planks for the sides and paddles that can be made of cardboard and PVC pipes. The instrument consists of two rows of the fourteen two inch PVC pipes placed vertically parallel to each other. These tubes have to be placed within cylindrical containers that are embedded into the wooden planks. These wooden planks are attached to the side supporting planks. The paddles consist of flat cardboard heads attached to one inch PVC pipes that are no longer than one and a half foot each.
