I even like the bell like ring when striking with it as the stainless steel it is made of has a nice tune to it.
I still wouldn't call it heavy metal ha ha

I use a 3/4" copper pipe, it makes a not so nice ring upon impact. That didn't bother me when practicing but at 3 am in a condo complex, let's say I had the opportunity to meet several of this guy's neighbors. ( I use bumping after failing at conventional meathods)
