Now available at your neighborhood discount store is this inexpensive whistle rack:
Similar models can be found at dollar stores with a criss-cross pattern on the sides, suitable for holding larger whistles.
I can’t figure out why the discount stores would sell these whistle racks but not sell whistles!
Displayed are a Village Smithy, two of my own creations, and six wood whistles currently on a private tour made by Tommy Dion. (Tommy is currently best known for his tweaking of whistles.)
Hey that’s pretty cool! You got some nice looking sticks there. Is the plastic pre drilled for that? What is that a test tube holder? Pretty ingenious!
BTW What is that big black thing to the left of the whistles with all the keywork on it… a lamp?
I like it. What did you use before? I made something once out of some scrap wood and dowels but I busted it up one night. I was walking across the room in the dark and I nearly impaled myself on it. Your idea is better.
Since you ask: Clarinet: Buffet in A.
But I play a Forte clarinet in B flat most. Clarinet players take note, if you haven’t seen this: www.forteclarinet.com
My wall-mounted whistle rack is 4 feet long and has a soprano sax in it too!
Kevin is right on with the name and description, the sticker on the shelf listed it as a “mini crate”. I found it where all the plastic bins and boxes are.
Excellent idea. They didn’t seem to have them at the nearest WalMart (but it’s a small one, if that’s not on oxymoron), but I found one for $1.50 at Fred Meyer (similar kind of store). It was with the other Sterlite storage containers.
