I got some new whistles recently from Tommy, who posts here regularly. He’s been making whistles for a while now, but hasn’t gone full time in it as far as I know. Last year he sent out, on tour, five whistles in five different woods and I was impressed. I got some olive wood and made a deal with him to make whistles for me in D and C. Here are some pictures of them, some taken with flash and some without (to explain the differences you’ll see in the lighting):
Cool! What happens if you blow into the fipples?
They look truly awsome. Would you post a sound clip?
Wowww!! fantastic!! pretty whistle, what is your price???
so, the flipp is of Derlin?
Olivewood is glorious stuff. Do yours still have that olive aroma in the wood? When I machine olivewood, the smell is almost intoxicating.
Gorgeous! Thanks for sharing!
Kinda makes you want to put a garlic fipple in the thing, eh?
its a sweet smell. i work with it sometimes—
how much is he charging for these-how do they sound
Mmmmmmmmmmmm… my kind of whistle! 
Those are gorgeous!
Very perdy 
very beautiful, kind of looks like a Schultz or Busman. i hope the sound is as good. 
Those looks amazing. I’d better get one before they start going for $300 each
I hope it’s not… 
Just kidding Tommy-- I hope you do well with these. They look beautiful.
I see you’re working on a C: with the same ID and OD, you can also make Eb. Pushing any higher or lower would not work out too well though.
The white delrin fipple plug looks very classy, I haven’t seen that before.
The grain of that wood is beautiful.
In my experience wooden plugs are better than metal or plastics. Less clogging.
Yes, the olive is a beautiful wood and for aesthetic considerations also I would like to see an olive plug. Olive at the heart, so to speak.
Please take my opinions here with a grain of Aegean salt as I am merely a music maker and not an instrument maker.
My best wishes to Blackhawk!
Thank you, my friend Talasiga!
I’m not selling these, AlonE, but thanks.
so, the flipp is of Derlin?
I think so, AlonE, but you’ll need to PM Tommy to be sure.
It makes a nice sound.
