The wobbly sound is because I'm holding the horn and spinning it the same time sounding it.

Mine is pretty quiet, I know, but as long as it sounds good, I am fairly happy with that for now until I construct myself a pvc version in the future.

@@BigHorndb188 Cant wait for that bet they could kick off a 30+second echo.

I probably start with a Nathan K3HL or P3 first in the future

Didn't do that yet

It works better at a higher tone It sounds neat at a low tone, which would give a lot of treble, but you don't feel the vibration. At a higher tone, I can feel vibration way more than I can feel it low. It's due to the horn bell curvature and size.

I like that you explained some of what you were doing Have you explained the whole set-up?

lol

Well, I didn't make this thing to piss people so I can get assaulted. I enjoy listening to the echo, and I like playing with the different tones. I wouldn't be so STUPID to go into people's property and start harassing them. Otherwise, I wouldn't be living to add this comment.

Besides, I do my horn honking remote locations where there are no people.

Much further, especially when it's calm.

Depends on the environment and terrain. fog horns have bin reportedly heard from 20 to sometimes 40 miles (32-64 km). how ever, one such fog horn that was once used at the Brier island Lighthouse in Nova Scotia Canada was said to be heard in Eastport Maine USA which is a little over 53 miles (86 km) away.

@@UsTrainsAndSirens yes

@@BigHorndb188 That's a cool setup.

It look awhile with trial and error. To make it easy, start with low tune. It works better at low pressure. The curvature of horn matters a lot.

plastic vs. steel? My horn cannot be compared to heavy-duty commercial ship horn. The bell on mine is aluminum, and the power chamber is plastic with an aluminum diaphragm. The commercial ship horns are pure steel and very duty, being able to withstand extreme air pressure, extremely durable, being able to withstand harsh weather conditions. If I had a steel power chamber for my horn, I could add a thicker diaphragm, plus I could add way more tension, and I wouldn't have to worry about it exploding on me. My plastic power chamber could explode on me if I added too much tension to the diaphragm. Plastic is not made for high air pressure.

It's probably the recording that makes my horn sound weak

That is why I choose remote locations.

or 10!!

Haven't done that yet. This coming spring, I will probably do a dB test

I'm Trying 26 gauge, zinc plated. We'll see how it works : )

.017 thousandth. I used a micrometer

Have fun, and make unnecessary noises the proper way lol

If I had one of those gas air compressors hooked up a large tank, then I could give the master salute.

lol

@@BigHorndb188Thanks!

I usually push the tube ⅛ to ³/16 inch over. Instead of the diaphragm being totally flat, it would be rising a little from the pressure of the tube. I had trim a little of the nozzle (tube) because it was sticking out a little far later after the video because it didn't work.

@ I see. Thank you! I’ll try to not be too precious with my first iteration and may incorporate some adjustability because I’m pretty confident I won’t initially get it quite right : )

I want a horn like this so bad bro. Dont know shit of tools or mechanic how to make it 😭😭😭

Check my channel. Actually, this horn power chamber is a scrap, so I converted it into a rubber diaphram. This thing is actually quiet compared to my real horn

I see there are some demos on your other videos.

You mean with the back cap off and the diaphragm moving?

@@BigHorndb188 Sure, that would be interesting too.

I keep it in mind. Stay tuned

No I haven't

The difference between **echo** and **reverberation** lies primarily in the nature of sound reflections and the environment in which they occur: ### **Echo** (in an open area): - **Definition**: An echo is a distinct, delayed repetition of a sound that occurs when sound waves reflect off a surface and travel back to the listener after a noticeable time gap (typically more than 0.1 seconds). - **Environment**: Commonly occurs in open areas with distant reflective surfaces, such as cliffs, mountains, or large buildings. - **Characteristics**: - The original sound and its reflection are clearly distinguishable. - The delay is due to the long distance the reflected sound travels before reaching the listener. - E.g., shouting in a canyon and hearing your voice repeated. ### **Reverberation** (in an enclosed area): - **Definition**: Reverberation is the persistence of sound caused by the reflection of sound waves within an enclosed or semi-enclosed space, resulting in a blending of the original sound and its reflections. - **Environment**: Occurs in enclosed or partially enclosed spaces like concert halls, rooms, or auditoriums with multiple reflective surfaces. - **Characteristics**: - The reflections occur in quick succession, typically within 0.1 seconds. - These reflections overlap and combine with the original sound, making them indistinguishable from each other. - Reverberation creates a sense of "fullness" or "depth" in the sound. - E.g., the lingering sound of clapping in a hall. ### Key Factors That Differentiate Echo and Reverberation: | **Aspect** | **Echo** | **Reverberation** | |----------------------|---------------------------------------|---------------------------------------| | **Time Delay** | Noticeable (>0.1 seconds) | Very short (<0.1 seconds) | | **Environment** | Open spaces with distant reflectors | Enclosed spaces with many reflectors | | **Perception** | Clear repetition of the sound | Blended, continuous sound | | **Distance** | Requires a significant distance | Occurs within shorter distances | Understanding these differences is crucial in fields such as acoustics, architecture, and sound engineering, where controlling sound reflections impacts the design of spaces and the quality of audio experiences.

@@hulkgqnissanpatrol6121 Nice Long Description and Thanks!

It will come. Still working on it.

@BigHorndb188 subbed , cant wait

Check my channel Uploaded just now

Also, I'm glad to see your own the difference between an echo and a reverberation! 👌

Where do sound off at?

Workin on the video

@@BigHorndb188 cant wait

It on my channel. Uploaded just now

​@@BigHorndb188 you have **VERY SEVERE LIE-ARRHEA!!**

I used a 6 inch to 4 inch reducer, stuck a 4 inch pipe through, then installed the diaphragm. I glued the diaphragm on a 6 inch piece, cut a small section of 6 inch pipe to hold the diaphragm in place, and a back cap to hold a spring to give it more tension. It was mostly done on an engine lathe. On my channel, my first video that has the most views shows that the power chamber and a little details. I'm working on a video dedicated on the assembly. Stay tuned.

Just uploaded the video. It's on channel
