My first flute! (..added video)

<< < (5/5)

Josh:
thanks a bunch for the info! I joined one of the groups and figured out how to make a routing jig... it really makes life easier vs scraping them out by hand.  I just finished my second flute just waiting on the finish to dry... it is an F# and the sound on this new one is a whole lot better in my opinion... I made the true sound edge a little wider and shorter and the difference is like night and day!  I will post it when the finish dries on it.  Thanks again!    :) :)

Catahoula:
Josh,

Flutes are a lot of fun!...once you get the standard flute down then tackle a branch flute and then after you have done a few of those tackle a boo flute (when you do email me as you need new instructions) and then once you have made fifty or so flutes then it will be time to take on a drone.  If you join a flute circle (each state has at least one) you can find flute players as well as local flute makers to hang out with and ask questions of) (Check out INAFA on the net and look in your state for flute circles and makers).

Enjoy!
