Hi... I looked it over the first time around and I am still stumped. Can you get a clearer pic of the Maker's Mark, or tell us exactly what it says. I can...
I just posted the pictures of the makers mark. It says Original Ocarina with a line in the middle. C1 is the only other mark. Thanks again for checking...
How do I get to see these pictures, Sandy, as I was there but not completely
sure how to go about it. Could you send me a picture of the instrument for
who...
Did you use the link in the post...? http://launch.ph.groups.yahoo.com/group/Ocarinaclub/photos/browse/1e74 You might have to log in when you get there,...
Here's what I got too but still not enough to tell the whole tale. One thing though I might add from memory is that this must be a fairly
modern Ocarina as the...
Sandy, I found the one that looked just like the one my older boy broke when
he was about 10 or so and it was just exactly like one called "Fiehn
octradion",...
This past weekend I made a rode trip to Dallas for a Native American Flute "retreat" on Saturday. Part of the program was a pair of Bolivians that talked about...
Knew a guy on the crafts circuit years ago that made a version of what you describe - he called it a "Donut Flute". He could have sold a truck load of them...
Hi Mike, As you know, my little vessel flutes use a flute-like opening too, and I have found that I can bend a note quite far, usually pulling one lower note...
There are several types of these toric ocarinas at: http://www.clayz.com/baz/ocarinas1.html The Bolivian one sounds like the fourth picture down! ... and I...
Hi folks, New to the group and new to Ocarinas as well. In fact, I've made a couple in clay but never in wood. I do make Native American Style Flutes and...
Welcome aboard, Jerry - Those are some mighty fine looking flutes on your site. We are very impressed - Any pics of the Clay Ocs? Wooden Ocs should be a...
Greetings neighbor! Looking at your flutes I am sure you have the skills to quickly learn ocarina making. I'm hoping you will bring a little of that innovative...
Welcome, Jerry, Yes, they do have a lot in common and yet quite a difference in the
whole. Where the likeness is the same is in the EDGE which is the sloping...
What NAF groups are you on? I'm on the BASIC group and also the NAF Woodworking group. I also make my flutes and ocarinas from bamboo, but I have made some...
Thanks for the welcome and the comments about the flutes. Bill, I don't know if you'll run into me at craft fairs or not. I'm also a glass artist and used to...
I often feel that way about Art and Craft shows too. Fortunately, what I and my lovely wife make cannot really be found at Walmart nor anywhere else. Neither...
Bill, I suspect any crafter, regardless of their medium, will tell you that internet sales are a crap shoot. For example, I've had my glass web site up for...
Yep, that's about what I had thought. We did a little business on Ebay, but nothing significant. Back when the WWW was new, and people were just starting to...
http://www.handcraftcenter.org/artistry.html Here's a link to the Guilford Art Center in Connecticut. They sell all hand made art of high quality. They...
Good Morning All - Another one in CT is the Brookfield art center http://www.brookfieldcraftcenter.org/ This is where Barry Hall held the 'From Mud To Music'...
Has anyone tried making an ocarina out of kydex? This is a thermoplastic that softens at a relatively low heat (300F). It's very easy to work, just pop it in a...
Well, this is twice now. If this post makes it through, it will be two posts that have been delayed by yahoogroups. I sent one to a flute group that just...
