Posted July 28, 200223 yr Staff Dear Carrie,It is best to use 6 (hollow) rods.It can be made of brass or even (silver) aluminium. The centre `clinger' or the support roof can be made of either metal or wood.I personally find a wooden material the centre `clinger' that hits the 6 rods better than metal. Since it is lighter and with the slightest breeze is easier moved by the wind.For information, the rationale for using 6 rods is because 6 represents `BIG METAL'. And metal is often used as a cure.Alternatives for wind chime is to place six coins (preferably the Chinese coins with square holes at the centre) into a glass jar (e.g. a glass jam jar). Add a spoonful of salt and water. But this alternative needs constant attention because, the water often dries out (depending on humidity). And that it should not be placed at a corner unless there is sufficient ventilation. Preferred location is next to an open window.Warmest Regards,Cecil Quote On 7/28/2002 11:50:00 AM, Anonymous wrote:What is the correct number ofrods to have on wind chimes ?Thanks You
