Answer 1

Often used home-made replacements for bells are glass bottles, partly filled with water and hung in a frame.
The size of the bottle, and the amount of water decide the note, so tuning can be done by adding water, (or dumping it of course.)
You hang them in a frame by tying a jug-sling knot just under the top of the neck:

An other way is to use pipes, like they use for the metal wind-chimes.
You tune those by the length.
So you make them longer than they should be, and take off a little at a time till they are in tune.
