digeridoos?

[kareina]

This post primarily aimed at my many friends in Lochac, but if someone elsewhere happens to know the answer, feel free to chime in...

Can any of you tell me what the cost of digeridoos is? Is there a source of affordable used ones? What is the cost of shipping of such a thing to the US like?

I've got a friend in Atenveldt, dorinda2212, who has heard that playing a digeridoo will help strengthen one's throat muscles, and, over time, greatly reduces the unpleasant symptoms of asthma. She would like to try this "cure". Please either let me know here, or reply to her post with any helpful suggestions on where/how she can obtain a dideridoo without breaking the bank.

This will seem really random and I don't have the foggest clue how he did it, but my uncle made a digeridoo out of PVC pipe. The band members here in Avon do breathing exercises with 1" ball valves (PVC) to increase their lung capacity. They start with the value mostly open and force air through it. As the training continues they make the opening smaller and smaller which requires more force to move the air.This was a low cost alternative to existing tools for horn players (ie to increase lung capacity). These might be possible alternatives if the digeridoo is out of her budget.
