Thank you for looking.
I am dedicated to creating instruments that can play automatically, even without musical skill. I've meticulously crafted this by carefully selecting the notes, materials, and precisely measuring and cutting the lengths using spreadsheets. The exceptionally long sustain and well-balanced overtones create a rich, pleasant resonance.

The 3cm diameter stainless steel pipes produce a clear tone and powerful overtones, offering an overwhelmingly soothing sound experience.

The tuning is E G A C (Mi So La Do), forming a C6/E chord. While simple, this tuning is my original creation, as I couldn't find anything similar for wind chimes. It has a beautiful resonance that is as captivating as Westminster chimes, making it something you won't tire of listening to. Based on its sound, I've given it the nickname Fly Me to the Moon, after the famous Frank Sinatra song.

Wind Chime Trivia

Terminology
Support: The round board from which the chimes are hung.
Striker: The weight that strikes the chimes.
Sail: The board that catches the wind.

Commonly Used Pipe Materials: Iron, Stainless Steel, Aluminum
High-End Materials: Copper, Bronze, Brass

The longer the pipe, the lower the pitch. However, the audible sound consists of the second and third overtones. Therefore, the usable range is approximately two octaves around the middle of a piano. Even with the same fundamental note, longer chimes have more overtones and are more appealing.

Thicker pipes are less prone to bending, resulting in a higher pitch. For the same reason, thicker pipes also produce a higher pitch. However, both thicker and denser pipes have longer reverberation and richer overtones.

The position where the hole is drilled for hanging is crucial. Lower-priced products typically hang from the top uniformly, which interferes with resonance and shortens the sustain.

The height, weight, hardness, size, and shape of the striker, as well as the length of the string and the size, weight, and shape of the sail, all affect the tone and sound production. Fine-tuning requires trial and error.
