'Bunny Ban', a Boon to Bountiful Broccoli

Okay, we didn't plant broccoli but zucchini would screw up the alliteration. I had to remove the cages because the plants quickly outgrew them. Besides, they were ugly. Instead we had to rely on my recipe......Bunny Ban. Water, red pepper flacks, garlic, Tobasco Sauce, and dish washing liquid. Set in the sun for 4 days, filter into a spray bottle. So far it's working and we are already harvesting zucchini. 
I hope bears don't like peppers and garlic.😬

There was no reason for this project other than to see if I could make a simple mallet instrument. The box was made from plywood (which also acted as the resonators) and the bars were made from maple.  Since this was to be a true xylophone, the bars were all of equal width. Tuning was done by cutting the bars to different lengths and removing material from the bottom. Using a router I created a sort of 'stepped pyramid' instead of the traditional arc cut found on marimba or xylophone bars.  Cutting the underside is not only for tuning but it focuses the pitch and creates the characteristic overtones of the instrument. Since I wanted to play this with other 'Western' instruments, I chose to use a pentatonic scale of 2 2/5 octaves (C#,D#,F#,G#,A#,C#,D#,F#,G#,A#,C#,D#). Two people sit on either side of the instrument and strike the ends of
