Paper Towel Making a musical instrument out of a paper towel roll?
I vaguely remember making a musical instrument out of a paper towel cardboard tube when I was little. I think it involved rubber-banding a piece of wax paper over one end. (I might be remembering wrong, too.) So, I want to make one...Anyone ever do this? How is it made? I tried just putting the wax paper over one end and it doesn't seem to work.
How about making a kazoo out of a comb and wax paper? Again, a vague memory...Anyone remember how to do either one?
Thanks a lot!
O, brother..
You must be my age.... ha ha hah
well,, here are some suggestions.. not sure they will work either.. haha
take a plastic comb.. and take a small piece of wax paper.. it goes on top- side of the teeth of the comb..
hold it tightly..
put in mouth.. and blow.. I remember there was kinda of a art to this..
kinda like a horn instrument.. u have to have the no how or u have to practice a lot..
then the paper towel..??
seems like we put a few tiny hole in the roll.. near the top.. then use a rubber band to hold the wax paper on the bottom.. it can't be too tight around the roll..
good luck... my memory is like ur 's..
good to remember all the things we did as kids..
the kids of today have missed out on a lot..
good luck..

Spring roll wrappers (rice paper)- Erawan brand, 16 oz USD 4.20
Made from a mixture of rice flour, water, and salt these are rolled out by machine to paper thinness and then dried on bamboo mats in the sun. Rice papers are used extensively for wrapping Vietnamese spring rolls of pork and seafood, which are then fried and wrapped with crispy fresh lettuce and herbs and finally dipped in a sweet, sour hot sauce. Useful Hints: Rice paper must be softened before use. Simply immerse them, one or two sheet at a time, in a warm water. Soak them until they are soft, approximately 1 or 2 minutes. Handle them carefully as the sheets are brittle. Drain them on a linen towel before rolling Make your own fresh spring rolls with our recipe. A more convenient size than you typically find, as these are 8.5" in diameter and much easier to work with than 10 or 12 inch style. We offer only the premium wrappers which are not too thin and not too thick. Simply pour warm water over thin wrap and it becomes soft. Place the wrap on a plate and stuff with your favorite vegetables (bean sprouts, sliced carrots, cucumber, fresh basil leaves, cilantro, mint leaves, lettuce) and meat if you prefer. We like to dip the final product in our special sweet chile sauce for spring rolls, or a mixture of 1/2 cup Hoisin Sauce, juice of one lime, two crushed Thai chile peppers and several cloves crushed garlic (use a mortar and pestle to crush the chiles and garlic). Each package contains approximately 45 individual wraps. Product of Thailand.
