Making a Scrapwood Ocarina

- First of all I want to thank Archijoe who already made a video making a wooden Ocarina, I wouldn't have been able to do it without his video. Check it out here: • EP.3 [목공] 처음으로 만든 나무 오...
I started making this ocarina without having ever owned or played one, I'm not sure it has the best sound but I think it turned out quite nice. Preferable I would have hollowed out the chamber with a gouge, but as I don't have any I turned to doing it with chisels, a dremel and lots of sanding. The wood types I used are Padauk, Hard Maple and Cherry.

I've always wanted to craft myself an ocarina for so long, my first few attempts haven't given me the results I hoped for. But after watching this video, I think I have an idea what I can do different.
I hope it will work this time! Honestly I thought this one was going to fail too, it helps to test the blow-hole by taping the two sides together.
The toothbrush was an interesting idea I never thought of doing for smaller projects. Awesome end result! I definitely want to give this a try now.
Thanks mate! I hope it works out for you. Especially the voicing hole is hard to get right (which you don't really see in this video) but once it works it's magic!
@@WoodCat How did you know where to put the tone holes?
I held the pieces together and then held it as I would play it, then made the holes where my fingers sat naturally.
@@WoodCat The voicing hole is what ruined my day today. lol
Spent about five hours making two different back pieces. No luck yet. I'll get it though!
@@noiamhippyman Yeah I also feel I just was very lucky, although I tried it 6 times before it worked. It also helps to watch videos of people making it with clay to understand the anatomy better.
Nice Ocarina.And godd sound.I wish you good luck with your Channel.
great work. would love to see more.
Wish I had scrap wood like that ro play with
wonderful work
Do you dell this Flute?:-) very nice Work...
How do u know, where to place the holes?
Wow
Thanks
I make this in the future😊
Have you ever tried making xylophones or marimbas there huge projects to undertake but so worth it in the end i just finished my second marimba and its a huge learning process but its so rewarding and by the end you have a instrument you can play for years and tune too.
Gotta ask - do you drill all holes the same size then just tweak them based on the pitch of each note? And how did you 'set' the pitch of the blowhole or do you just use whatever note it is and build from there? Great video, cool looking wood
I love it.
Ciao! Dove posso trovare schemi di costruzione? E come si fa a calcolare posizione/diametro dei fori, in base alla scala e all'intonazione che gli vogliamo dare? Io ad esempio, a prescindere dalla scala, suono tutti gli strumenti, intonati a 432hz
man awesome job i want to try it out too does it have to be a tone wood for the chamber?
I actually don’t think it’s necessary to use a tonewood. I however wouldn’t try something like pine or oak though.
@@WoodCat yeah makes sense ive got some padauk kicking around i'll try combining that with a light coloured wood too maybe ash or maple.
@@lturnbullify Cool! Don't give up when you don't get it right at first, it needs a lot of tweaking, small tweaks can make a big difference. One way to test the voicing hole is to tape the two halves together.
@@WoodCat thanks eh thats great
Hey what exact wood did you use? Love the vid!
Hi! I used African Padauk, hard maple and cherry.
It looks good, but i did wait for you to play it...
You can hear me play it in the beginning
@@WoodCat 🤔 yep, but that sound was so weak that it don't give me any value
Ok, that’s why I’ve left other sources in the description. Ciao
@@WoodCat i have to check it out 👍
I cannot get the wind way down and all the diy on RUclips barely shows the process in depth :(
where can i find the holes data？thank you
Yah that’s and idea I had as well. How would you know where the holes go to create in tune notes?
Are you selling it
Sound test?
You can hear the sound at the start of the video

Learn to use the depth stop on your pillar drill - every hole would then be the same depth, requiring a lot less clean-up work.
does it works???
