No,don't destroy them!They�re nice as they are...seriously,try asking the Oddmusic list for this,there�s probably someone there who has done something similar.I imagine there�d be plenty of things you could do with them,like some kind of enormous ocarina or reed instrument.Keep in mind that if you cut up identical but irregularly shaped objects you get not only inharmonic timbres,but DIFFERENT inharmonic spectrums...so it may not be possible to find a scale that works for it.
