I've been playing around with some ideas utilizing some things around here at work, which is a steel fab shop. Not necessarily 'making' the instruments, but using them as a percussive element.

That's always fun. For a while my friend was on inventory for a machinery production factory, and some days the bosses would leave him and a few coworkers to close. He would call me and my other mate over and we would come over with drumsticks and bud. We'd smoke out with his coworkers and they'd watch us jam on all the machinery.

He got laid off a couple of months ago though, and his new job is more strict about letting strangers in

Machinery percussion circle. Nice.

20 and 40 foot containers provide an interesting boom when hit with a 20 lb sledge. Just sayin'.

****ing amazing instruments.
I'd love to jam on those.

+elevendybillion. Really love the stuff. The closest I've seen in person was a percussionist playing a bicycle rack he dragged in from the street.

More on that note:

Pretty awesome instrument, I'd like to see a more creative approach than making cartoon music. I could see some incredible modern classical coming out of that one (not knocking what he's already doing though).
