This trumpet is another toy from the series of "needed-right-away” instruments and it links to an interesting story. During one of the Euro 2012 football games  we realized that we do not have vuvuzela. During the half-time, we quickly set to work. Garden hose, small and large funnel, some glue, stiff wire, cable ties and 15 minutes were enough to build this funny instrument. We lost the game, but the trumpet stayed with us up to this day.

At the moment we have several instruments of this kind and after mounting the mouthpiece from a real trumpet, the sound is really good and it can be modified by bending the hose or by plugging the holes drilled in the hose. A good entertainment for some boring nights :)

The cost of the instrument: 0-6 Euro
The construction time: 15 min.
