It is DIY, I was unaware that the amount of machines changed that fact. Read the multitude of other comments I've replied to about this about how you could make it with only hand tools, or where to go to get access to machinery like this.
It's an instrument with ethnic roots, but that does not mean you cannot make high quality versions of it. It's like saying that violins are overkill because the Byzantine lyra was a much cruder instrument. You can definitely go the route you describe to make a kalimba, but it's not what I was going for.
Originally, I was only watching by curiosity, thinking of watching some minutes of this video. Damn, this video is strangely really satisfiying to watch !
Janloy Quintero The mill can be substituted with a vice and and a drill. Or a clamp and a drill to drill the ground bar. Or just use a rounded file to get the grooves. A hack saw and a drill can be used for the Brass bar. A saw some files a chisel and sand paper can be used for making the body round. The tree can be cut using a jewelry saw or with chisels. Alternatively you can just drill holes instead of doing the tree. Files can be used to round the tines. Have a good day.
CrimsonSkyz Right! Essentially a sharp rock can be used to chisel the wood as well. I am well aware there are other tools less precise that can be substituted. My point is, the finished product would be nothing similar to what you built using what you used. P.S. My day is great!
dilandogbp how'd you know if he hasn't got those machines? even if he doesn't (like me) he can still try and find ways to make one... anyway pointless argument sorry lol :)
Your editing and voiceover work is excellent, and you have convinced me to build a kalimba. I have all of the tools, but the garage is a mess so I'm just going to use a cardboard box and some paperclips.
Switch & Lever Keld Sørensen I see one of these in my Grandsons future, and have always believed kids like cardboard boxes more than fancy toys sometimes...but think I'll use wood it's more durable Thanks for the great video and fun project!
***** -- Wow. Holy overreactions, Batman. I'm not sure what happened to you man, but that's an incredible case of butthurt you got going there. Your ass is glowing so bright, Santa's going to call you to lead his sleigh.
Evi1M4chine You probably liked your own comment, cause no-one else would. I'd say you are a gamer, cause that's the only reason you'd overreact so much. Just know, whatever reason you have for being one, your a @$#&.
+Gim Uni I own nothing of what you see there. Just because you use something doesn't imply that you own it. If you're interested in building a workshop you don't do it just to make a kalimba and then leave it unused anyhow.
haha, saying that "we can move on to protect our kalimba, so it doesn't just last for one awesome jam session on the beach with all the babes" with that same monotonous tutoring way of speech as if it was part of the assembling process made me laugh so hard :D
+Luminor yep, I can totally understand the $5 in material being too expensive for some. (The machines aren't mine, don't confuse usage with ownership.)
Yeah, but most of us don't know someone who'd let us borrow their studio, and the skills needed to assemble a kalimba are going to require resources. ^^'
Anything is going to require resources. If you don't have the means to aquire them, then find a way. If you don't have the willpower to try, then don't complain. Spreading negativity is not good for your own happiness, nor other's. We can at least strive to make the world a bit better place.
Switch & Lever Well, as a I said before, we don't know how to get the resources. When he made the joke, he didn't even have a baseline. (I assumed all of those machines were yours as well.) For that reason, it's hard to start because it seems expensive. Maybe you can make a video explaining how you got started so we can try it ourselves? :)
Don't be such a jerk dude, he just made a joke plus not everyone has acces to such machines. You can't deny that all the machines that you used are very professional stuff. Just a few people have acces to such machines so chill out.
+DatGurl TalksPidgin those who tries and learn from their failures, those who rise up and say, against insurmountable odds "I can and I will!" Those are who. Where there is a will there is a way, the question is simply if your will and desire to learn and achieve your goals are strong enough, or if you're just happy with quick fixes.
That's just another excuse. If you want something badly enough you'd find a way to make the money. The issue is that most people want it right now, and they don't want to make a long term plan and save up/work extra time/sell stuff, etc, to eventually reach their goal. For all the excuses being broke is one of the worst. If a homeless person can rise up and become the CEO of a multi million dollar company, you can get enough money to buy a few woodworking machines.
+K.H. Fab Lab is a kind of location present in some cities that have laser cutters and this wood rotating thing. I don't know if any of them are equipped to cut metal though.
+Elias Hernandez nope, you assume that people are incapable of two things a) get access to tools (usage doesn't need to mean ownership) and b) people are incapable of figuring out how to substitute for instance a band saw with a hand saw, etc etc. Don't be held back by ignorance, your own or other's.
+Frank Blangeard It's not that complicated, if you look at it from a luthier's perspective, I like making things which challenge my skills, rather than making simple things all the time. The motivations behind it are numerous, too numerous to mention here. :)
+Mira Kim of course you can, but it somewhat misses the point. If all you want is a kalimba, but one, for sure. If you actually take pleasure in making things, then make your own.
I suppose you could MacGyver a crude kalimba using half of a hollowed-out, fully dry coconut shell, a sheet of thick pressboard from broken "build it yourself" furniture, some bobby pins, and leftover pieces of picture-hanging hardware, along with a few basic hand tools. Use a drill and coping saw to cut an attractive sounding hole in the pressboard, then cut it to fit the coconut half. Sand each so they fit flush, then epoxy the edges and clamp them together. Straighten out the bobby pins and put them between two differently-sized serrated picture hangers, then screw them into the pressboard tight enough so they don't slip. Loosen the top clip enough to tune the pins to your liking, then retighten. Coat with lacquer or stain. Voila, a coconut kalimba. Go out and plunk out some "authentic Zambian love songs" (even if you're as white as corn flakes), with a Kangol hat to collect your busking money.
It takes 20 seconds to write this dumb comment. but, it requires a bit of dedication and extra hard work to build this craft. get out off UA-cam and get a life!
Bend the sides out of solid ash, white oak or hickory with a scarf joint and it'd be a lot simpler. I've also bent birch, pine and cedar, but ash is the best for bending.
This must be the most dificultly way to build a Kalimba... you can get a much better sounding Kalmba in a much easier way, without using all this big machnes.
Big machines... like... a mill or lathe? Tools that make precise work easy. How I fail to see how it would sound better using other methods that are more prone to error and more work intensive.
A professional guitar maker also builds guitars by himself, they're still not considered DIY. They are considered professional guitars or custom guitars. He built a professional quality instrument with professional tools, just because he documented it in a Video does not make it a classic DIY. If Gibson made a video of some employee handmaking a 3000$ Gibson guitar, would you also consider it a DIY just because you could theoretically build it yourself ? Also i'd like to add that i'm not hating on him, he does a very good job.
Maybe to reiterate, I don't claim this to be a DIY in the sense you outline, I don't know where the belief that this is supposed to be a DIY like that came from.
Switch & Lever Oh you're right. I didn't even notice that "DIY" is never mentioned in the video or in the title. I guess I was just to blown away by how professional everything looked so I immediately thought " How am I supposed to do this?". Nevertheless, keep building crazy stuff!
Wow! I really thought that was going to be hard! I'm sure everyone has access to all of this equipment....even if they live in a tiny apartment with three other roommates.
If you don't, and that's your attitude, of course you're not going to get access to it. There is a whole world outside your shared apartment, there are businesses specifializing especially in providing machines, and a space, like these for hobbyists. Look up Techshop, Makerspace, FabLab, etc etc. If you can't find any nearby, there may be schools and businesses which you could befriend and get access to. If you don't have the willpower you can of course complain in a UA-cam comment, it's much easier after all, but far less productive.
@malnatik9@Gmail.com wow, that was a really long rant, which honestly I didn't read beyond the first couple of lines, only to complain that you're not able to do anything. You see, that's the difference between creative people and complainers, those with creativitiy find ways to achieve what they want to do, other people just complain and devalue themselves doing it.
This type of videos make me feel productive even though I didn't do anything but watch it xD
Same thing here lol
I was just watching a tutorial on Javascript, and I ended up making a Kalimba. This place is cursed.
Helium Punk Was watching nano physics and ended up here lol
Me I'm just taking some time before to open my company...when I'll finish to send documents around, then there will be some php for me too :D
Someone get this man an award.. oh wait.
We don't all have full workshops !!!!
i watched a 12 minute tutorial for something im probably never gonna get to.......worth it
Bennn same
Bennn same!!
I was just watching a tutorial on Javascript, and I ended up making a Kalimba.
Oh my gosh that's so me xD
Bennn sameeee
This is less of a DIY sort of thing but more of a "How it's Made" type behind the scene on how to make instruments. Pretty neat to watch
I have a screwdriver.
We should ask advice to mc gyver
OriginalPai i have a jar of sand
That's a good start buddy! Now, if I can just find a tree to cut down... hmmm...
yoga pangestu only you L
honestly tho
looking forward to that awesome jam sesh on the beach with all the babes
Chimi Choi lmao xd
Chimi Choi I looked through the comments for this exact comment!
I like how he's so professional until he goes. "It's a pain in the ass."
Just came to the comments to say the same thing lol
thats one hell of a disc sander
well done!
Make your own. Step 1: grow a tree.
Step 0: Find a proper seed :)
Step 2: Rob a bank to buy heavy equipment.
Step 3: spend 1,337 hours to precision cut.
AsianGamer step 4: take another ten years to perfect it
step seven: spend the next 15 years practicing in jail coz of the bank you robed to make it
I'm so fucking inclined right now
knowing that the mouse might one day play the kalimba, it fills you with INCLINATION
inclined to pray the gay away
I'm inclined!
I decline that you're inclined
I just had a stroke
At 8:00 the box is smiling with a nice moustache
Haha, I had not seen that until you pointed it out! That's hilarious!
Until he put a screw in his eye.
That's actually adorable
I was watching this with my cat laying in me and
Guy: There is more than one way to skin a cat
My cat: *looks at me with a look that says* Bitch you fucking better not
omg 😂😂
Holy shit an instrumentalist DIY'er that gives history for once. Holy fuck I love you.
I'm not just here to builducate, I'm here to educate! I love amassing useless knowledge so much I can't help but to share!
I expected DIY... where do I get all those fancy machines again?
It is DIY, I was unaware that the amount of machines changed that fact. Read the multitude of other comments I've replied to about this about how you could make it with only hand tools, or where to go to get access to machinery like this.
Switch & Lever ok, Ironicaly, the only thing I have from this video is the OPTIONAL laser cutter lol
It's an instrument with ethnic roots, but that does not mean you cannot make high quality versions of it. It's like saying that violins are overkill because the Byzantine lyra was a much cruder instrument. You can definitely go the route you describe to make a kalimba, but it's not what I was going for.
+Max Walczak great respect for the traditional craft
This is diy woodworking tools arent fancy machines
I bet that's how they ve been making it for a thousand years.
Just joking btw. great video. you actually inspired me to try to make one without machineries
Now I actually wanna know Xb
The better version. Science to the max
Originally, I was only watching by curiosity, thinking of watching some minutes of this video.
Damn, this video is strangely really satisfiying to watch !
Ahh who am I kidding you don't need to learn tunes. Everything sounds good on a kalimba! *Goes ham on Kalimba*
+1 sub
Bitches have been literally grinding their butts on my doorknob ever since I built a kalimba. Thanks bro!
+0prahTV that sounds very unsanitary.
Wait, that wasn't chocolate?
I'm making a Kalimba for a Instrument Making class in college. I'm already excited to get started thanks to this video :3
8:05, look at the back of his left hand.
I cringed
I don't get it. What is it?
Agnė Rinkevičiūtė the vein
Oh
Oh, the vein? So you didn't mean the weirdly bent finger??
Outstanding construction and great sound.
Now I have another use for those spring steel "tines" I collect in the gutters from our street sweepers.
Yeah i have a laser and all the other industrial equipment to make this thing...
Janloy Quintero
The mill can be substituted with a vice and and a drill.
Or a clamp and a drill to drill the ground bar. Or just use a rounded file to get the grooves.
A hack saw and a drill can be used for the Brass bar.
A saw some files a chisel and sand paper can be used for making the body round.
The tree can be cut using a jewelry saw or with chisels.
Alternatively you can just drill holes instead of doing the tree.
Files can be used to round the tines.
Have a good day.
CrimsonSkyz
Right! Essentially a sharp rock can be used to chisel the wood as well. I am well aware there are other tools less precise that can be substituted. My point is, the finished product would be nothing similar to what you built using what you used.
P.S. My day is great!
My laser cutter got screwed, I'm writing this while buying a new one at Costco lol
"Essentially a sharp rock can be used to chisel the wood as well." hahahah omg u make my day
Could you guys name a woodshop thst lets you borrow one because i know and have found none.
This instrument sounds like a lot of fun to play with.
04:57 ''And then used a DISCsander...'' Haha, sounded like you were falling of your chair of something
This man has just created my dream kalimba. I thank you more than you will ever know
Haha loved this video. Think I might build one now. :D
+Falconieri and the Follias go for it! Send me some pics if you do, would love to see how it turns out!
I am not an expert but I think he was sarcastic....
Why would he be being sarcastic? lol It was a good video and he wants to build one, why is that so hard to believe?
+draw4yourlife3 maybe because of machines he use. Maybe because this video is not how to make but how its made in factory?
dilandogbp how'd you know if he hasn't got those machines? even if he doesn't (like me) he can still try and find ways to make one... anyway pointless argument sorry lol :)
1.- your work it's amazing 2.- your workshop it's awesome
It's 2 in the morning what am I doing
Your editing and voiceover work is excellent, and you have convinced me to build a kalimba. I have all of the tools, but the garage is a mess so I'm just going to use a cardboard box and some paperclips.
"But was a pain in the ass to get situated" haha love it!
Thank you for showing how to make (or cut and place) the tines!! The history part was fun and interesting too!
Aw man now I really, really wish I had a lathe and sanding belt and etc so I could make one! D: It looks like a fun project!
Awesome vid by the way! :D
Beautiful, just beautiful.
Let me just grab my handy dandy laser cutter.
+NoBeatsNoProblem Awesome! Or you know, use a scroll saw, or just drill out a hole. Whatever works for you!
My thoughts exactly.
I don't have these tools, but my memory will work if I wait till I'm older.
Don't forget your lathe and milling machine! 😅
What a great idea and a project for some doing with your children !
Thx for sharing !
You have a lot a very nice tools ... that disk sander ... wav !
Keld Sørensen Indeed, you don't need to make it as fancy as this. Heck, I've seen plenty of kalimbas made from cigar boxes even.
Switch & Lever Keld Sørensen I see one of these in my Grandsons future, and have always believed kids like cardboard boxes more than fancy toys sometimes...but think I'll use wood it's more durable Thanks for the great video and fun project!
It's a sweet workshop =)
Inspire To Make Indeed, I wish it was my own!
there are so many of this sound being heard in final fantasy games series...its very soothing n refreshing
Very good humor throughout the video. I have played similar tunes before.
i've been using bike spokes as tines because i couldn't find any thin flat metal strips. Drain cleaning strip looks perfect! thanks, great vid
I have no idea how I ended up here. But I somehow feel glad I'm educated about kalimbas and kalimba making :L
that song you did at the end was majestik
Gamers should have no trouble learning to play this instrument!
***** -- Wow. Holy overreactions, Batman. I'm not sure what happened to you man, but that's an incredible case of butthurt you got going there. Your ass is glowing so bright, Santa's going to call you to lead his sleigh.
Evi1M4chine Dude, it's not that deep. Get off your high horse.
Evi1M4chine
You probably liked your own comment, cause no-one else would. I'd say you are a gamer, cause that's the only reason you'd overreact so much. Just know, whatever reason you have for being one, your a @$#&.
Thanks! Great video! I would fit the sound hole on the other side tho, if you ever want to mic it up.
Though I know I will never make this but it's just enjoyable to watch.
Thank you, that's one of the greatest praises I can get!
I never expected to see something that professional on youtube.😃
Make your own kalimba! Step 1: Invest in a machinist workshop.
Cool though :D
+Gim Uni I own nothing of what you see there. Just because you use something doesn't imply that you own it. If you're interested in building a workshop you don't do it just to make a kalimba and then leave it unused anyhow.
It was just a joke :P Great channel by the way.
XD
that's a work of art.
haha, saying that "we can move on to protect our kalimba, so it doesn't just last for one awesome jam session on the beach with all the babes" with that same monotonous tutoring way of speech as if it was part of the assembling process made me laugh so hard :D
this was so satisfying to watch honestly.
....I have none of this equipment but we've made them for centuries without any machinery! If there's a will there's a way!
what an amazing collection of tools you have!
I'm really not sure why I watched this, but nice video!
+Ned Powell cheers!
Excellent work and video, Thank You for inspiration
good that i have all this big machinery in my garage
3:28 That's a very cool method to steam wood!
well let me get my metal and woodworking workshop and we can get started
You have some seriously awesome workshop gear. Love it.
step 1: be rich
+Luminor yep, I can totally understand the $5 in material being too expensive for some. (The machines aren't mine, don't confuse usage with ownership.)
Yeah, but most of us don't know someone who'd let us borrow their studio, and the skills needed to assemble a kalimba are going to require resources. ^^'
Anything is going to require resources. If you don't have the means to aquire them, then find a way. If you don't have the willpower to try, then don't complain. Spreading negativity is not good for your own happiness, nor other's. We can at least strive to make the world a bit better place.
Switch & Lever Well, as a I said before, we don't know how to get the resources. When he made the joke, he didn't even have a baseline. (I assumed all of those machines were yours as well.) For that reason, it's hard to start because it seems expensive. Maybe you can make a video explaining how you got started so we can try it ourselves? :)
Don't be such a jerk dude, he just made a joke plus not everyone has acces to such machines.
You can't deny that all the machines that you used are very professional stuff. Just a few people have acces to such machines so chill out.
Big UP for your amazing project!
But does it Djent?
It can
I djont know if it djoes
probably
Thank you very much, man, finally someone to teach us this, really enjoyed it. I will make mine right now
yeah, let me just fire up my laser cutter...
ermg😍 sounds too lovely. never making one though lol
*just casually makes a Kalimba*
Best video about this instrument!
5:02
the trick is to do it exactly right
So all I need is an awesome workshop.
There's no way I'm doing all of this
WHO HAS THIS MACHINERY AND SMARTIENESS?!!
+DatGurl TalksPidgin those who tries and learn from their failures, those who rise up and say, against insurmountable odds "I can and I will!" Those are who. Where there is a will there is a way, the question is simply if your will and desire to learn and achieve your goals are strong enough, or if you're just happy with quick fixes.
Switch & Lever holy shit, I'm inspired.
Switch & Lever but we broke.
That's just another excuse. If you want something badly enough you'd find a way to make the money. The issue is that most people want it right now, and they don't want to make a long term plan and save up/work extra time/sell stuff, etc, to eventually reach their goal. For all the excuses being broke is one of the worst. If a homeless person can rise up and become the CEO of a multi million dollar company, you can get enough money to buy a few woodworking machines.
Switch & Lever You're right, I'll start by selling narcotics. Thank you and nice video btw its pretty good.
I want one of those.... So beautiful
Where can I gain access to such a workshop?
+K.H. Fab Lab is a kind of location present in some cities that have laser cutters and this wood rotating thing. I don't know if any of them are equipped to cut metal though.
cant believe this is made by a solo youtuber, the production quality is top notch! great job and keep rocking the beard!
Cheers! I truly appreciate the support!
I guess you are Norwegian, am I right? Nice videos! subscribed
UnfairGamer Swedish I would guess :)
+Ruben Wolf all the words in the background is in swedish though
Fucked Up Videos It may be in Sweden but the guy speaking sounds rather Norwegian
Alway a refreshing pleasure to see your work, Thanks
lmao you assume everyone just has all this shit laying around like it's nothing
Elias Hernandez most people watching have it.
+Elias Hernandez nope, you assume that people are incapable of two things a) get access to tools (usage doesn't need to mean ownership) and b) people are incapable of figuring out how to substitute for instance a band saw with a hand saw, etc etc. Don't be held back by ignorance, your own or other's.
A beautiful instrument!! Well done, and thanks for the video!!
6:39 Yes, there is something stopping me from using a LASER CUTTER!! Lol. Money
Then use a coping saw, or just drill out a hole. If you get stuck on not having tools then of course you won't get anything done.
I got one of these for a gift. Awesome instrument
I'm supposed to be studied yet somehow I ended up here
+k lincoln this can also be seen as studying, but maybe more life skills than book skills.
Switch & Lever this ain't gonna help me get my degree though
+k lincoln on some level it may, I'm a huge proponent of taking breaks. It help immensely with retaining information. Your brain needs the break :)
Awesomely brilliant.
The music was way too loud and distracting so I couldn't hear half of the instructions.
Interesting, none of the previous 800 commenters have mentioned anything such. Maybe it's something with your setup?
Excellent video. What would be most interesting is your motivation for making the video and for making the kalimba in this rather complicated way.
+Frank Blangeard It's not that complicated, if you look at it from a luthier's perspective, I like making things which challenge my skills, rather than making simple things all the time. The motivations behind it are numerous, too numerous to mention here. :)
Don't get me wrong, this is great. Or you could just buy one :)
+Mira Kim of course you can, but it somewhat misses the point. If all you want is a kalimba, but one, for sure. If you actually take pleasure in making things, then make your own.
This was actually wonderful. Thank you.
That last part was embarassing... for any musicians out there
+LoveToUA-cam so glad I'm not a musician then!
LoveToUA-cam nah, was fun XD
I suppose you could MacGyver a crude kalimba using half of a hollowed-out, fully dry coconut shell, a sheet of thick pressboard from broken "build it yourself" furniture, some bobby pins, and leftover pieces of picture-hanging hardware, along with a few basic hand tools.
Use a drill and coping saw to cut an attractive sounding hole in the pressboard, then cut it to fit the coconut half. Sand each so they fit flush, then epoxy the edges and clamp them together.

Loosen the top clip enough to tune the pins to your liking, then retighten. Coat with lacquer or stain. Voila, a coconut kalimba. Go out and plunk out some "authentic Zambian love songs" (even if you're as white as corn flakes), with a Kangol hat to collect your busking money.
11:27 Everything except that.
Well everyone's a critic! You...............................................The joke.
Nice tutorial. I did one of my own and enjoyed it a lot! Thanks
this little thumb piano project set me back about 45 hundred dollars.
I died when he said "ah, who am i kidding? You dont have to learn any tunes. Anything sounds good on a kalimba."
I'm thinking if I spent all that money on the shop tools this guy has to make a box that plays a few notes I'll pass, fuck it ,just buy the box
You don't buy the tools to make a kalimba, you build a workshop to be able to build a whole world of stuff.
It takes 20 seconds to write this dumb comment. but, it requires a bit of dedication and extra hard work to build this craft. get out off UA-cam and get a life!
Bend the sides out of solid ash, white oak or hickory with a scarf joint and it'd be a lot simpler. I've also bent birch, pine and cedar, but ash is the best for bending.
Why did I watch this?
I was just watching a tutorial on Javascript, and I ended up making a Kalimba.
I played one of those at the Six Flags souvenir shop. Had no idea what it was but I had fun playing it.
Tabs?
great video! Easy to understand and follow so I choose to get one Kalimba through Amazon
This must be the most dificultly way to build a Kalimba... you can get a much better sounding Kalmba in a much easier way, without using all this big machnes.
Big machines... like... a mill or lathe? Tools that make precise work easy.
How I fail to see how it would sound better using other methods that are more prone to error and more work intensive.
Like, I think found materials that have their own unique resonance. Like a coconut shell..
VoltzLiveYT easier to afford/find/fit in your house
armorgamsees
I never questioned that. "I fail to see how it would sound better..."
Alright, will try to make one, thanks for sharing
Thats cool but definitely not a DIY. It's basically a professional made instrument you could sell for good money
How is it not DIY? He made a nice version of it using expensive tools, but he also explained that you can make a simpler version without those tools.
kuaraba the definition of diy is do it yourself. Did he not make this by himself?
A professional guitar maker also builds guitars by himself, they're still not considered DIY. They are considered professional guitars or custom guitars.
