While wandering a car boot sale in the UK recently I came across a bamboo didgeridoo. I thought that would make a nice set of float tubes so bought it for £3.

I cut it into 3 lengths:

Bought some suitable sized tapered corks to act as stoppers:

And turned some wooden fixed plugs for the bases on my lathe:

I finished them off with some whipping and varnish:

Those look great, though I won’t mention it to the one person I know who could have played it! She might threaten to turn a Sowerbutts pole into digeridoos! 😉
