  • Here's how to make a 4-toned train whistle made using a scrap piece of a 2x4 board. These make great stocking-stuffers or gifts. Kids love them.
    This is also a good project to make if you have limited tools. All of my sawing could easily be accomplished with a hand saw.

    Dear Steve,
    Thanks for this awesome video. I saw someone use this today as a classroom management tool. They are not easy to come by where I live, but with your tutorial, I used my hand tools and had one made up this afternoon. Such fun! Thank you for the plans and the detail you put into your video. Cheers

    Hi Steve! I just made this for my 4 year old son! He loved it. I took 4 hours though, but he stayed with me the whole time, super keen to hear the chuuu-chuuu!!! Thank you so much for uploading this video, and better yet, making available the PDF file.

    Hey there Steve,
    I just wanted to say, keep up with the great videos. Me and my other class mates have enjoyed your videos in my middle schools woodwork shop. Our teacher, Mr.Steinbaugh has shown at the beginning of every class with one of your videos for about the past month. I cant wait to see your Christmas special video.

  • @bruceplourde4202
    @bruceplourde4202 Год назад

    Thanks, Steve! Following your instructions, I made a Train whistle and a simple thumb-sized whistle for my grandson from scrap wood in my garage, and they both work great 👍. I'll be checking out your other postings.

  • @BTom16
    @BTom16 11 лет назад +1

    This has to be one of the most fun projects I've watched in a long time. Thanks, Steve.
    ... but it seems a bit dangerous. What if a youngster blows the whistle causing someone to jump in an effort to get away from the train, hits the counter, knocks off a slice of bread which lands on the floor, peanut butter side down. If the person cleaning up the stuck bread is allergic to peanuts, they could easily break out in hives.

    I had no idea they were as complex as they are. I guess I took the simple train whistle for granted. All joking aside, great project. Thanks Steve.

    I’m tempted to make custom whistles that are based off actual whistle on actual steam engines. I’ll likely use spruce for it because I don’t want it to sound tinny I want it more resonant.
