Ring my Charms (I mean bell)...
I had an itch to work on the lathe so I decided to make a bell from scratch. Wanted to see if I could do it. Didn't want to make a scale one because sound does not scale well. I started out with a 4" cylinder of bronze. Then I rough machined it, filed, sanded and sanded and sanded... (similar to making the side rods). Well, it looks and sounds excellent.
Here are the dimensions.
