New Revised Edition Flute Shop Book
This flute shop workbook provides all the details and easy to follow illustrations that you need to create a beautiful sounding six hole flute in the key of Gm, Bm and F#m.
In addition, it provides information on crafting an Em Kiowa style flute, Dm Lakota style flute, Am side-by-side drone flute and river cane flutes.
This book is full of useful information including full-scale drawings of fetish patterns, mouthpiece options, safe router jigs, spacer plates, history, songs, tuning and scale charts, and resources.
Included is a chapter on creating fancier flutes with carved Sand hill Crane, Mallard duck, and Elk spirit ends using the four direction tuning holes.
This is the only book that we have found that gives accurate detailed plans for making the haunting and very popular drone flute. Also included are crafting instructions for flute accessories such as flute stands and cases. We recommend adding the “Creating and Using" book series by Lew Paxton Price to acquire additional insight and tunings.
We highly recommend this book and it is a must for any hobbyist or flute makers workbench.
