F# Meranti Didgeridoo

Background: This was my first ever attempt to make a wooden didgeridoo. Couldn't wait for wood that had been gathered to season, so used hardwood timber (FSC of course), from a local merchant - two pieces of 6"x2". Clamped the two halves together, drew the shape I wanted, cut it out then hollowed and glued.
