Didgeridoos hand made to be played
Blue Resin Yew Wooden Didgeridoo
All my didgeridoos are hand made by myself, and made to be played. If you want to know what goes into making a wooden didgeridoo such as this, further information can be found in How to Make a Didgeridoo.

Yew Blue Resin Didge
Background: This didge was given to me a request to coat in a layer of blue shiny resin. I must stress, the didgeridoo itself was NOT made by me, but by Ant Scott.
The yellow in the timber of the Yew didgeridoo affected the blue colour in the resin - making it a sort of greeny colour. I tried (somewhat unsuccessfully) to introduce a subtle shade of blue, though as it turned out the thicker, or more opaque colour works well. I shall certainly experiment with some different finishes to didges when I have the chance.
