Constructed from PVC, suspended scrap resonator, wooden  dowels,
 steel rod, nylon line and threaded piezos. Performed  by bowing 
stem and strings, pulling dowels through eyeloops on pvc posts. 
Bowing produces sounds according to resonance  of pewter cabbage 
leaf. Pulling dowels produces whistling  (fayfer) sounds. 
Rotating stem produces pitched plucked sounds  tuned by 
moving thread piezo up and down nylon lines.|
