Thanks for sharing this fun project. As to the mouthpiece options, maybe you could do the opposite of your process of the bell, pushing the heated, malleable mouth end into the inside taper of the metal funnel?

Thank you for the tips! For the mouth piece I use a simple end cap for the 40mm PVC tube, where I did a 30mm hole (sandpaper and so on). It does the trick but it doesn't look as cool as yours.

Thank you for the advice and complement! My first one I made I used a pvc fitting that was like a coupling that went over the 1” 1/4 pvc stick and had a few inches of an 1” 1/4 pvc sticking out of the coupling (that piece is prefabbed in one) and it was already smooth and it felt real easy on the mouth. Don’t know the name of the part but just haven’t done it again cause I like to keep it one piece but will definitely try your advice, cheers!

For the mouthpiece: thinking about putting a wooden conic plug inside the pipe and PULL the heated soft PVC untill it shrinks down to the smaller end of the cone: this will distribute the matierial along the lengthened pipe and avoid the kink due to extra material forced into a smaller diameter. Do you think this is feasible ? By the way, love your burning process for creating wood pattern.

Yea sounds like would do well also learned from another Didge maker you can make the mouth piece with a metal funnel like the bell but heat the mouth piece and put it inside the funnel so it will make it smaller but not kink. Thank you appreciate it!

On a real didgeridoo they often add and shape the mouthpiece with bees wax. Don't see why it wouldn't work on a PVC one...

How about a wax seal on the mouthpiece? Just a thought.

I have thought of that I just have didges with wax on them and I am not a fan the reason is the small edges of the pvc without wax I feel makes it easier to create an air tight seal when playing. There’s a piece tho I mentioned in the above comment don’t know the name of it but makes it very comfortable that just goes over the pvc without morphing it.
