I found some old chain link fence poles in the rafters of my shop and thought they would make a great set of wind chimes. If you're going to tackle a set of wind chimes yourself, I highly recommend checking out www.leehite.org. He goes over the process of making wind chimes as well as which materials work the best, all the measurements, and how to determine the musical notes of your chimes based on their dimensions. He even shows how to tune you wind chimes. I used his site to get the correct measurements for the size poles I have and also to get a template for the wooden hanger and clanger. Making your own set of wind chimes is a great DIY project and you can get the same great sounds without spending hundreds on a commercial set. I hope this video encourages you to try it out yourself.
Thanks for watching!!
