Instructions how to make Indian Native American Flute
Hybrid American - Slovak whistle
Flute American Indian (Native American Flute), I was impressed by its "primitive" production technology.Primitive word has a negative meaning, but rather reflects the ability to produce something with your bare hands without the advances of modern technology. Division among Indians wood, nails extracted the cavity and the two halves stuck together Download flyer Back resin. So there is no need for drill, as is the production of Slovak whistles, pipes or fujara.

Appearance looks Indian, but the hole diameter, hole diameter and width tactile box I made the model shepherd whistles .
This resulted in 6 N type shepherd's whistle hidden in the body of Native American flutes. Since this is a hybrid experimental musical instrument, I neglected primitive techniques of production and I helped machine tools.
