I'm looking for more of a fog horn sound. Would that mean I just need a longer pipe before attaching the funnel? Any benefit in going with a 4" to start?
Hey Scott , so I first got plans and built my first horn . About 15 years ago . Back then I could blow the horn by mouth. About a year ago I got more plans and am now building a set but I can’t get them to fire by mouth. What did the instructions use for diaphragms originally? The plexiglass seems to thick
I was referring to upper C# like I have on my M5 set of horns. Lower C# is at 277 hz and upper C# is at 554 hz. If you go to www.seventhstring.com you can find a note chart that shows all of the musical notes and corresponding hertz levels. The chart makes it easier to visually see how the different octave ranges work. Hope your build goes well.
I will have to re-listen to your video, but I thought you said that C# was the highest note you could reasonable expect to get, did you mean A? The A horn is clearly shorter than the C# horn... HOWEVER, I don't know musical notes, nor can I carry a tune in a paper bag, so maybe I am not getting something.

Originally I used aluminum flashing but they would tend to blow out after a lot of use. The plexiglas is much more durable.

By chance could we have a parts list?
Very Nice! I am trying to do A# at about 470 I have the coupling on the 3/4th pipe, but I barely have a funnel at 407hz anyway I can fix this? Thx!
Do you still sell your directions?
Sorry but no I don't , its been several years since I have. I should probably delete some of my old videos.
