We're given a task to make Bamboo Sound Tool(BST)
by our lecturer Dr Wan Burhanuddin on the last Friday.
At first, I planned to make a flute but
unfoturnately the flute failed to produce a sound
as the bamboo hole is too narrowed.
So, I decided to make Gamelan-look like sound tool.

It is more easier to make the Gamelan compared to make a flute.
You just need to tie up the bamboo stem as in figure 2.
Each bamboo produce different sound and tone.
In contrary , the flute needs to be punch holes .
It takes a lot of patient
in order to find a suitable stem to be punch !
