 |
| The chalice top is the moast comlicated part to build. It is built from five layers of pvc. The first parts you will need are a 1 1/4" X 1/2" bushing and a 3/4" section cut from a 1 1/4" cupler sand to fit and glue in place |
 |
| The next part is a section of a 3/4" cupler X 11/16" glue inside of the bushing and set aside to dry |

| The Resonator chamber is then ruff sanded to a bell shape leaving a !/2" at the bottom for the tube to fit into. The final sanding will be done after the next part is finnished and guled on. |
| Next you will need 1 12" X 1/2" pvc I use conduit and 1 1/2" copler cut a piece of cupler 1/2" long and glue on your pipe !/2" down This is the start of your cord tye in. I will cut the tube to length after the top is glued on |
| The top id of the conduit is sanded to the shape of the bottom of the bell of the resonator. At this point it's best to finnish the cord rings with out the top on it makes the sandind a lot easier. |
