I've done a lot of plumbing as a home remodeler, yes it's a pain in the ass to take pvc back apart after dry fitting before gluing.

Reminds me of an old Styx song. Too Much Time On My Hands.

Thanks for the in depth video. Most videos just show the horns and not how to make them. Cheers!

like how you explained for the non PVC expert like us. I put a set of Harbor Freight air horns on my old CJ5, it's Camo and folks kept pulling out in front of me swapping lanes and running me off the road. Also added a 6 volt horn from a 1950 Ford. Both the squeal from H Freight and antique horns make a loud awful racket. I'm gonna make a set of these instead or keep the others as well. I love seeing folks jump as they ride into my lane when I blow them back over.

Just one idea. If you made the piece bigger that touches the vibrating plastic diaphragm disk would it make it louder? I ask because in high school a girl had me turn her some different size mouth pieces for her tuba. Like wandering if instead of the half inch cap you instead took a half to inch and a half adapter to make contact with the diaphragm??? I've never made one but thought that could make a difference, maybe not a good difference tho.

You installed the diaphragm, then you removed the diaphragm so you could insert the 1/2 inch pipe, why not insert the 1/2 inch pipe first, then the diaphragm?

I can't decide, THUMBS UP or DOWN.

The 1st piece of 3" dia. you slip in the rear(1/2"long+/-)/.If you change the length of that, will it change the note of the horn?What about the 1/2" diameter pipe?If you changed that to 3/4" or 1" pipe, will that change the note?I'm wanting to build, like, say, a 5-bell horn setup, so I need to know what part(s) of the horn actually changes the pitch?Thank You!
