Instruction material for flute making?

Irish Flute

Hello to all the people in the flute forum,
I recently have become interested in the making of flute or fifes, and am curious if there are any instructional material for teaching people the basics(?) that. I’m pretty sure that the best way would be to learn under a more experienced flute maker, but since I dont have any around… I was hoping you’d be able to help me. :slight_smile: Thank you all ahead of time for your time and help.

I’m not a flutemaker, but if I wanted to become one, I’d subscribe to the yahoogroup “flutemakers”, and ask specific questions there. I read that list out of curiousity, and they frequently discuss basic questions that even I can follow :wink: (lathes, how to drill and ream, how to calculate hole positions and sizes etc.).

cheers,

Sonja
