HoBow:
Cool job Josh. I've been practicing mine so we all can have a jam session...paleo style ;D

Catahoula:
Hi,

Just wanted to say that is a nice looking flute...like your bird a lot...the holes on most flutes are different sizes...in fact if I see a flute that has all the holes the same I usually find it not in tune and the holes have just been drilled by someone who doesn't know how to tune a flute...had a wood worker visit one time who left my house depressed as he had the idea that all he had to do was route the flute, drill some holes and wallah!! he would have a fine flute...didn't care for the fact that tuning them is the most important task in the whole process!

In case you are interested there are two flute makers sites on Yahoo groups and in the files you can find tons of info on building all sorts of NAF's...many of the top nationally known flute makers are on those sites helping people along...
