A source of discussion and advice on all aspects of flute building. Such topics may include the acoustics of woodwinds, placement of finger holes, ergonomics, wood and metal turning, computer modelling, and more. Discussions can encompass all sorts of flutes, from simple-system Irish flutes to shakuhachis, ocarinas, and whistles. Many of these topics also relate directly to reed pipes, and pipers are welcome (although we may limit posts regarding reed-making to about 1,000!)

"Flutes shouldn't be demure. Lascivious is good." - Terry McGee (Australian Flutemaker)
