    Maple Music (A father-son project)

    OK, so it's not ALL maple. But it is for the most part. My son Matthew and I were looking for a new project, and for some reason wind chimes seemed like a cool idea. In retrospect, we might should've thought through it a little more. :gar-Bi It turned out a little more difficult than we...
