'CherryCows' Native Flute - Birdseye Maple

Great to see you back. That is a really nice flute. I will check out your web site.

weird, I just stumbled across a site yesterday that has a bunch of tutorials and one was how to make one of these. I never even knew they existed until then. Yours looks a whole lot better than the one in the tutorial.

Great flute Kieta! Glad to see you back! Have you done any more updates to your flute making guidebook lately?

-- Dennis, WV

Glad to see you here. This is a beautiful flute. I’ve been very interested in making flutes recently. I’ll check out your website for sure.

Yes, I continue to update my books and I send out ‘free’ updates to all of my students.

Currently, the beginners book on how to ’make’ the Native Flute is the #1 selling manual on flute makng in the world….and I thank the thousands of folks who have bought it for that.

My latest endeavor was to finally complete (after 2 long years) my Video Series on ”How To Play The Native Flute In 6 Weeks”. Again, that is instruction for someone who has never played a musical instrument before.

Lots of fun writing these manuals and videos. Great hobby, in addition to my Native Flute making woodworking.

I hope to retire from my regular J.O.B. in 5 years and then I can really get rocking&rolling on all of this fun stuff!

Stay tuned….

I have your Flute book, how do I get the updates?

-- Dennis, WV

Howdy Dennis….and first of all let me say thank you for supporting my books….I sincerely appreciate it.

The ”kieta Native Flute Making Manual” (intended for beginners/intermediates) is now complete and there have been no more updates.

The ”kieta Shop Booklet” (intended for advanced flute makers) continues to evolve and I post free updates on our Basic Flute Making Forum:

The most recent chapter was Chap 37, and was about laminating different types of wood for the Fetish-block.

PS – I just posted another project here on Lumberjocks about my CherryCows Spokeshave Mule (draw-knife bench). Take a look at it.

Stay tuned….

Just ran into one of your manuals and was interested in what you’ve been up to. Please recall we exchanged some wood for knowledge a few years ago. I was wondering if you had any pics of flutes made from that wood. Still have the yucca flute. Best wishes, spj
