Bill and I spent a few days last month building the “musical instrument” pictured here. The idea is that the spoons bounce off the strings at different speeds since they are attached to rods of different lengths. You push down on the tennis balls, release them and the spoon just bounces off the string, like boing, boing, boing accelerating as the spoon bounces less high and ending up with a fast little bing, bing bing that turns into nothing as the sound dies out.
