OT to OT (sorry)…
I attempted to make a new whistle last night out of PVC - a high-D. I can’t get flutomat to give me reasonable spacing for holes #2 - #3 (from the bottom). The tubing is 0.71 ID, with a wall thickness of 0.0725. Any ideas? :smiley:

Sorry, I wasn’t listening. :wink:

I am sure people who think the board has too few on-topic, whistle-related threads are more than welcome to start some up themselves… :wink:

Actually, two years ago the forum was a lot more (beside some pictures of cats and trips now and then) whistle related. The good old time!

Yeah, I was the only one who ever posted OT threads. NOT!

A number of people seem to assume that when someone suggests that a poster try a search it is done in bad temper. I have seen the words “angry” and “curt” applied to such suggestions.

Assumptions are dangerous. Or to put it another way, this is a load of bollocks.

When I suggest someone tries a search for a particular topic it is only because I know the matter has been dealt with thoroughly before and that useful information is out there already. The fact that I don’t waste words in making such a suggestion or decorate it with daft icons doesn’t mean I’m annoyed.

Right now, though I am a little exercised. Take the beam out of your own eyes, folks.

Heh. And even this thought isn’t new:

“What has been will be again,
what has been done will be done again;
there is nothing new under the sun.”

Yeah, that one goes back 3,000 years, doesn’t it? Or last week, when I read again. That one never goes out of date.

OT as in Old Testament?
