Wow, amazing build. How did you tune the notes? Did you just sand them down until they sounded right?

Second this comment. Amazing work, and I'm also very interested in how you tuned the notes
That's dope! Love it!
Wow... what a project.
Wow! What are the resonation tubes made out of? Can you describe the process of tuning each key?
The resonators are simple PVC piping of various diameters! Tuning those was dead simple, just cut a section out, put a cap on one end then bang it with a hammer to produce a tone, then just chop a bit off to raise the pitch,
For the keys it was a bit more complicated, I typed out a comment giving the basics and linking to the blog I used to figure it out though!

Gorgeous! How does it sound?
How difficult is tuning the keys?
That is sick!
This is phenomenal, and must have taken a ton(e) of effort... ba-dum-tss.
