Reduce a round piece of wax paper that is bigger than the ends of the tube. Cover one end with the wax paper and hold in location with the rubber band and make sounds into the opposite finish of the tube.

Loop the string at the curve of the horse shoe or thread it by way of the pipe. Tie a knot at the top and hit the horse shoe or pipe with the knife as quickly as it dangles from the sting. Make sure that the string is robust sufficient to hold the pipe. needs
