Flute
« on: July 22, 2017, 08:43:13 PM »
  Made these some years ago for a bit of fun .... the pic with the tape in front is work in progress aiming at a deeper tone,
  A mate finishes them off with the hole size using a electronic tone meter . The last pic shows the internal parts and where
  they go.
  Comments always welcome
  Regards Tony

Education is important, but wood turning is importanter.
