Recycled Rain Stick

I made this rain stick from 2 large and 2 small toilet paper tubes.I had a lot of them lying around and I saw this contest so I thought I would make this photo instructable .
I joint all the tubes together and then poked about 100 BBQ sticks cut to size.Then I glued all the wholes and closed one side and then put some rice in it and then sealed the other side.

One good tip is to use sugru to seal the holes after the sticks have been poked in so that the sticks do not move and the rice does not fall out.(I tried it and it works perfectly).Here's where you can buy some sugru(https://sugru.com/buy).

I hope this give you some new ideas to make different versions of this.
If anyone makes this please try and post a picture as a comment on this instructable.

[CHAOS.]

Cool!!!

[scoochmaroo]

I can see where you've suggested that sugru would work, but I can't see where you've actually used it.

[vishalapr]

It all depends on you, if you think this is fake sugru, well then...
I'll atleast try to the win one of the 3 prizes with this ible

[scoochmaroo]

I'm not suggesting the use of "fake sugru", I just didn't see until now where you actually used the sugru (instead of the glue), but now I see it in the second to last photo.

[vishalapr]

So wil it be considered for the special prize...

[grover]

hahah this is fake!
thats not even sugru!
nice try
trying to win the minor prize

[vishalapar1]

You are fake!!, what do you mean by its fake, its completely original

[DiyProjects]

haha you also made fake accounts to vote for yourself(vishalapar1, instructables123456)

[vishalapr]

Well done Mr.Bond or should I say grover...and you say I made fake accounts...

[vishalapar1]

I dont even know who vishalapar is i just named my account like this because I liked vishalapar's instructables...

[vishalapr]

no I didn't, I don't know who vishalapar1 is but instructables123456 is my friends account who also likes DIY a lot.

[vishalapr]

YAY cool username dude, thanks for subscribing, and yeah this is real sugru

[instructables123456]

This is real sugru, I have the same black color one and I think this is better than Mr.Bond's ible and this does contain sugru so this should win the special prize.

[vishalapr]

Ya it is, it is sugru, black colored sugru, its just shining a bit because my camera is a crappy camera like I said before, and the pictures aren't clear as well.

It is real sugru but if scoochmaroo thinks that it should not be allowed to win the special prize then, I'll just try to win the normal prize.

[vishalapr]

I added 2 zoomed in pictures in which I show you how big the holes were and how sugru helps to seal them.I used only a little for many holes as I had only a little bit of sugru left.

[vishalapr]

I used it near the sides where the sticks are sticking out a little bit, and also near the 2 corners

[vishalapr]

Very little bits were used as I only has some sugru, so if you want a close up picture I can add a close up picture to the pictures in this ible

[username252]

Does that mean it's not valid for the special prize?

[vishalapr]

I hope it is, by the way do you like this ible

[DiyProjects]

[R.A.T.M]

ya its perty creativ but it sucks that pople only gave u 6 votes so far

[vishalapr]

If it really is that creative then the judges will select it, so I think there is no need to worry...if I don't get selected that means I just need to work harder next time...
