a company that collects ringing stones worldwide for a variety of purposes.
the very large ones could be set out in a circular arena for rock concerts. it seems that music within the circle can be enhanced by careful placing of the stones.
as a village to village alarm sounding device when
all the electric stuff has let you down. churches could use them when the usual set of bell ringers are all down with flu.
unusual garden features with an automatic hammer attachment to ward off moles (these mysterious rocks were traditionally held to keep fauna and flora at bay…)
tiny ones could be used set in a pair of wedding rings, that when knocked together, create your personal “ommmm” sound for magical togetherness moments or singly to summon your loved one to dinner.
smallish ones would make great doorbells.
listen to a variety of ringing stones here.

Hang them as earrings "to ward off moles" and warts. |
|
| |
you would need two on each ear like cherries |
|
| |
Damn! Why do my rocks always ring when I'm in the shower? |
|
| |
Stoning mobs made melodic? |
|
| |
Amazing, makes me want to landscape the back yard around a stone xylophone. (+) |
|
| |
Could I get my home phone ring tones to be ringing stones...? |
|
| |
why is the guy at the organ dressed? |
|
| |
His stalacpipe was getting cold. |
|
| |
I used to live not far from Ringing Rocks. (And also Boulder Field, which was very similar except the rocks didn't ring.) I kinda think the rocks should be left where they are. |
|
| |
Where's the money in that?! |
|
| |
Oh my goodness! I live really close to Luray Caverns! Freaky! 'Course, I've never heard of this before, but that is so cool! How'd you hear about them, [2fries]? |
|
| |
Fashion ringing rocks into fenceposts and construct an Aeolian harp fence. |
|
| |
I really need to shut up before my identity is given away and the angry trolls come to execute me... |
|
| |
I honestly don't remember where I heard about the cave organ [ghillie] I've sure never been there. Probably from a documentary channel or in a science magazine. |
|
| |
is that a product you are in need of, toadi? |
|
| |
Some Stalactites also ring. Add to the collection!
Btw, I don't know how many times I read the title, but I always read it as "Global ringing tones", as in mobile phones. Oh damn, I just saw the link for the organ. |
|
| |
Might as well ask, does anyone live near me? |
|
| |
I expect so, yes. Why don't you look out the window? |
|
| |
Although I love ringing rocks and have rung them myself, I don't believe that: "a company that collects ringing stones worldwide for a variety of purposes", is a good idea. A company like that would be knocking off the top of mountains to find the rocks and then paying king George W. to look the other way. No sir, I don't like it. |
|
| |
Not to pick nits, 2fries, but "stone
xylophone" is a contradiction. A
xylophone is, by definition, made of wood.
And wood can't be a stone. |
|
| |
Wait, what about Ron Wood? |
|
| |
I was thinking today - I don't get to spend so much time here as I'd like (Jutta for world leader; blah blah blah) - just fancied re-visiting this one for old time sake. |
