Swing both ways......
As in swing it with trapped air and again without to see if it makes a difference.

Swing both ways......
As in swing it with trapped air and again without to see if it makes a difference. The difference will probably be in the steadiness of the pitch. I have a stainless steel jug in which I keep tap-water to allow it to de-gas. Often I accidentally strike it against an obstacle and it produces a 'warbling' tone due to the swirling movement of the water in the jug. (It reminds me of those Chinese brass water-bells popular with trippy-hippies in the '70s.) The swirling of the water in the partially air-filled bell will produce a similar effect. |

Couldn't a full-scale test be more comfortably conducted in a swimming pool? bio Not with the chlorine that would have maybe hurt the bell after a certain amount of time. I don't know... the amount of chlorine that isn't harmful to human beings could hurt a big chunk of metal submerged in the water for no more thana couple of hours? bio |

Chlorine would only be a problem if they are using a genuine church bell - which is unlikely, and in any case I suspect that a genuine bell would be too large for a swimming pool for the reasons given above.
