Nice, just a thought here, you could always bring your tailstock up with a live centre and a scrap of wood to stop your Jacobs chuck from spinning out?
Good tip!
Really liked the idea of using the lathe too make the whistle.
Thank you!!
Excellent 👌 practical turning. Everyone needs a whistle ⚡️
Yes indeed! Thanks for Watching!!!
Nice video! I I drilled and taped my jacobs chuck Morse taper to accept a 1/4” x 20 all thread rod. Draw bar is much safer in headstock!
Great tip! Thank you!! and Thanks for Watching!!!
Newly subscribed trying to figure this all. I do like it when you give a rough dimension of the starting piece being a very new self taught turner.
Thanks for Subscribing, and Thanks for Watching!! Most projects will have dimensions unless turned from a limb in that case the size of the limb determines the dimensions.
great job Dean.... so nice that you do small projects.. I made some dibbers....next is a wig stand....and maybe a whistle or two..in between...thanks for sharing
Thanks Ed I am glad you enjoy the videos and that they are inspiring you to turn your own. Thanks for Watching!!!
Nice job. Never seen a whistle made before. Would make a nice project to sell at art markets. Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and see you at the next video. Sid.
Thanks Sid and Thank you for Watching!!!
New to your channel, thank you for sharing your talents, inspiration and videos much appreciated!! Great work!
Thanks and welcome Aboard. Thanks for Watching!!!
Thanks for that 😁
You're welcome 😊 Thanks for Watching!!!
Just made one and it works amazing for me
Awesome!!
Dean, why don't you drill & tap your Morse Taper drill shank to accept a draw-bar? It helps prevent it from loosening when Jacobs chucking things like your drum-sander. On another note, ..... Thanks for the enjoyable video. It's perfect with morning coffee ! ☝⚠

Actually I belive it is I just don't use it that much so I normally don't use the draw bar. I should. Thanks for Watching!!!
Excellent job. Great Idea for small projects. I am planning to make one for my grandson. I would like to know the dimensions of the main piece. Thank you for taking your time to teaching us.
3.5 to 4" length, Thanks for Watching!!!
Enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing.
Do different types of wood affect the sound ?
I belive they do I know that not all of them sound the same. Thanks for Watching!!!
Was watching WWWT on zoom last nite when you showed the whistle. Very cool! Years ago, i made a few train whistles like the other gentleman demonstated. Glad i found your channel and subscribed! Now i can go back and watch some of your other videos!
Glad you liked it, Thanks for Subscribing and Watching!!!
@@DeansWoodworking good thing theres a WorldWideWoodturners......thats where i saw you! Im there every week. I never go on camera, but, im there!
It is a Great group and a lot of great information is shared.
When making the mouth piece with the Jacobs chuck, why dont you bring in the live tail to hold it in ? Edit: Saw some other people already suggested it... sorry for spamming.
It is a whistle, and a pretty one to boot.
Thank you, and Thanks for Watching!!!
Ver y good job i Luke so much i need Moreno mothpiece diferente wars gracias
I'm glad you like it, Thanks for Watching!!!
I've made many similar whistles out of pine, walnut, maple, cedar, apple, ash and etc; however, every time I've tried to make one out of oak I can't get any sound out of it. My whistles have about a 3" deep hole (with a 45 degree angle 3/4" from the mouthpiece end) and they usually make a very good noise. For some reason the oak just isn't working for me. Any suggestions for having better luck with oak? Have you found the 30 degree angle to be superior? Thanks for the great video.
Red oak is an open grain wood and if you make an end grain bowl water will leak out about as fast as you pour it in. because of this the air escapes and it has to have a finish to stop the air flow for the whistle to work. different angles different sounds I suggest you play with it until you get a sound you like. Thanks for Watching!!!
@@DeansWoodworking Took your advice and sealed the inside of the whistle with a couple coats of thinned shellac and that did the trick... both whistles now look fantastic and sound fine. Thank you!!!
I have 50 3/4 x 3/4 x 4 in. whistles in a box next to my desk. I hand them out to the neighbor kids to drive their parents insane.
Yes that is so much fun, Thanks for Watching!!!
My next project...
But are you starting with 1" stock, or what ?
3/4" pen blanks is what I normally use. Thanks for Watching!!!
Like it
Thank you and Thanks for Watching!!!
Nice whistle. You might want to Use that tail stock (live centure) to hold that chuck in place.
Good idea! and I really should have. Thanks for Watching!!!
Great video. Great skew work. Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it, Thanks for Watching!!!
Bring you live center up to keep the J chuck from working its way out :D
That’s exactly what I should have done. Thanks for Watching!!!
Love the whistle what wood is it in please?
The wood is Walnut. Thanks for Subscrbing and Watching!!!!
Nobody:
Whistle guy: "y'all just come on in and make yourselves comfortable!"
Me: **looks around** guess I'm learning to make a whistle on a lathe which I don't own one of 🤷🏽♂️
Cool whistle but your fipple is pretty steep angle
Thanks Gary!!
Dean my dad use to make wood whistles when I was a kid. Rule #1 never run with a whistle in your mouth. Don't ask me how I know lol. He use to use sweet gum or black gum saplings just as the sap rises in the spring because at that time only will the bark slip off the wood easily. He carve the Vee knotch then pushed the wood out of the bark then made the longer knotch in the wood just stopping short of the end, he then pushed it back together and when it all dried the bark never came off.
great video!
Thanks soo much! I know exactly what you are talking about Jack. My grandfather made those for me when I was a kid and then taught me how to make them. I have not made one like that in many years. Thanks for Watching!!!
Glad this popped up in my feed. Haven’t seen new videos in a while, hope you are feeling well and healthy.
That is a good idea. Will it work with a larger size?? Thanks for sharing .
greetings, i"m new to turning !
I joined one of those clubs (didn't learn much ) started watching some of your videos, well so far I have made a carving mallet (weighs
about 1/4 lb.) second turning is a gnome about 9 in, tall but still working om it
so thank you for the help!
Glad to help Zane, Thanks for Watching!!!
That method of handling the skew chisel on those passes seem to evade me.
I suppose I have something to work towards still, but this is one of them techniques that I just have to master some time.
You can do it Johan, it just takes practice. Thanks for Watching!!!
Cool project for te kids. I'm putting that onmy to turn list. Thanks for sharing.
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for Watching!!!
Très bonne idée bravo 👍
Thank you!! and Thanks for Watching!!!
Nice little project, Dean.
Thank you!
Well done Dean.
Thanks Rick.
