Stuart,

Maybe you could drill a lot of holes through the rim of the  
strainer?  Or use a wire-rimmed strainer if they are still to be  
had?  Well done on the uploading!

cheers,

Vicki

Very striking, very Sci-Fi.  Do you think the collar or ring around
the base of the strainer could be blocking some in-coming sound and
reflecting some internally? Maybe the collar could be made less wide?
Hate to destroy the perfect proportions of your artwork though. Rob D.
