[sdiy] Synth in a pipe anyone?

[harrybissell]

Sorry, no photos.... but

I once made a bunch of drum triggers from 3/4" PVC tees... a short piece
of 3/4"
pipe and a pipe cap.  I cut a slot in the Tee from the inside with a
hacksaw, then
slid a piezo disk in it.  The bottom of the Tee had a 1/4" jack. Five
were mounted to a rail
with rubber iso mounts.   It was in imitation of some commercial unit
whose name I forget...
