7:55 is the most satisfying part of this video for me, i love how you can hear the click of when the plug gose in just that little bit to sit flush, just a little "crack" sound after the 9th tap, i dont know how manny times i have watched that one part over and over, thank you so much for alll your videos tho, all of them are well made, and enjoyable.
I am a player of the Native American flute. I don't know why, but I have watched you flute making video at least 5 times over the years. There is something restful and just right about the process. Some how it speaks to me and that is why I return to view it from time to time.
Thats very nice to hear! Thanks- with some good luck there will be another one online soon about fujara making!
This video is a piece of artwork. It needs to be preserved for next generations for the knowledge it contains.
The cinematography, the background score, the slo-mos, everything is top notch. Hat's off to the team.
well, can you rebuild a flute like this now? it's not very educational, more of a show, it serves the purpose of selling his products
your attention to detail is its own art to behold.
Always come back to this for inspiration. Too much Winnie love from nz
Dit raakt mij tot tranen toe. D was altijd terecht trots op jou en vol lof over je werk en zou dat vandaag de dag nog altijd zijn als hij er nog bij kon zijn. Zo mooi en erkentelijk is je werk en zo komt het ook binnen. pure ambacht en met liefde gesneden....
I'm gonna cry, thats so beautiful and relaxing... for a young stressed wood loving depressed boy that cry himself to sleep, that's a life saving. I truly thank you, I hope you know what impact a video like this can have on a life.
you can do it too ;-)
Great craftsmanship but I came here because I wanted to hear it played after being born. Like the joy of hearing a new baby cry when it draws it's first breath.
Creating an instrument is like giving soul to a piece of material... Such a beautiful video! ❤️🙏
thank you :))
imagine... God has given a soul to your body which he formed from earth, hence "Adam", the first man, is a hebrew word which means "from earth" translated... your soul is the breath of life.. His breath.. His Voice.. His word! His sound, His design! All glory to the Father in Heaven who created everything!

don't forget to honor the female aspect of life, as there's no doubt we all got here the same way, born in their blood and from the mothers womb. believing elohim or jahweh created us is optional. cheers
Hello, Winne, I was expired of your flutes and videos, and after that I was dreaming of having all of that instruments for making Balkan flutes. Now it time, I that instruments, and my first mini kaval. I am drilling wood and it’s incredibly.
Wow....Great Craftsmanship! As a part time, when opportunity allows, I dabble in woodcarving and have been considering learning how to make flues like this. This is by far the most inspiring video out of lots of great examples of flue crafters. Thanks much! BTW Great Website and music.
Excelente trabajo, gracias por compartir tu arte. Me encantan las flautas. Nunca había visto construirlas de madera a mano. Siempre en torno y nunca de una rama tan pequeña. Muy bello el video también. Entrar al taller aunque sea por medio de un video siempre es mágico!! Gracias!
This video should have at least 10 milion views! Charming is an understatement
Lovely finish and craftsmanship
Winnie, we haven't had videos from you for sone time now. Please my friend could you create more similar videos for us.
This particular short film I've watched more then 200 times. It works for me like meditation.
You are soul maker !
Hah Thanks. Ok well I was thinking of organizing a crowdfunding to make more video's it takes a lot of time and is very expencive to make quality video's like this. This one was at own expence, supported by me and the video maker himself. The idea is to make more music video's :) What do you think, would you back it?
Looks like part of movie making a flute wow so beatiful😍
It belongs in a museum!!! Nice work!
AHHHH!!!! brillant, now i see, the fipple is very much like the fujara without the pipe extension!!! COOL...great innovation!!! the film is just magical...beautiful!!!
It is not innovation, it is the way this caval is made...in the Balkans and Turkey there are cavals without this...caval as a playing instrument could very well predate the fujara....in the Carpathians and Tatra mountains shepherds have used aerophone instruments first to signal over large distances, the biggest beeing the romanian tulnic/a 4m long horn, and secondly to play....in tombes over the hole Eastern Europe archeologist have found primitive flutes made out of bones up to 40000 years old, so transition to other instruments was easy...the curent theory is that kaval, flute and telenka/tilinka were carried over to the Tatra in the 10 to 14 century AC by the romanian shepherds...there are a lot of places with the name vlach, vlahi, vlas, valas...tinere are the names used by the slavic ppl when designate romanians...listening to tunes from all these countries there is an amazing similarity of harmonics and singing techniques
this has become my favorite video on youtube.... the unification of art and life.....
...magical process, beautifully documented. thank you.
Beste Winne,
In één woord "Heerlijk". Als houtliefhebber en fan van jou muziek en instrumenten, is dit alles wat ik op RUclips nodig heb. Ik zie uit naar deel twee en ga dit filmpje nog vele malen bekijken. Dank je wel en "Every day a masterpiece" groeten, Ton
Ton van Loon Dank je wel Ton!Veel plezier ;-)
Prachtig Winne!
Also really well filmed and edited. The video really captures your perfectionistic eye for detail and your deep love and connection for the elemental beauty of nature and wood.
as an amateur flutemaker this is awe inspiring to see a master of the craft at work
call no man master or teacher, for only one is your master and your teacher! Jesus Christ, the king of kings in Heaven! Call no man father, for only one is your Father, the Father in Heaven!
One of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen! I almost cried!
Carlos Simas thanks!
why cry? 😂
whA?
@@ahmadbidmeshkiits true mahn some form of arts can make us cry
..it's the wood. The working with the wood. It has a soul ie. Many natural frequencies. Eg. Harmonium, tabla and aeolian flue all sound better then unnatural material instruments
So much precious tradition has been lost to assembly lines abd plastic that it veey moving to see a traditional artist at work. Thank you for sharing. I only thought you were Turkish because of a link on a tTurkish store sight that led me to you wonderful site. New subscriber here.
Thanks, enjoyable to watch. I think it would awesome to make a flute but keep it natural looking like a branch with bark still on with very little exterior sanding!
I love this video. It is an artwork.
nice videography and amazing hard work of flute Maker
Excellent Video!! Thanks for sharing!
my pleasure! I am working on new concent, if you want you can support new video making here! www.patreon.com/mesmerizingsounds
very critical work . patient man. congrats. super finishing.
Very nice to see summit made from the forest by hand , great craftsmanship dude 😁😁🤘🤘
Bravo. Bellissimo lavoro.
Saluti dall'Italia. Buon anno nuovo
Nice work with the sound
Having the dimensions of flute is the most important part of making a flute
In my experience, if you're starting from a relatively unique piece like this branch, having the dimensions gets you in the ballpark and then tuning as you widen holes get's you the rest of the way there. Both super important
The sound and visuals in this masterpiece are higher definition than real life, and better edited as well.
Oh thanks! I am currently working on new concent, if you want you can help me by support new video making here! www.patreon.com/mesmerizingsounds Feel free! cheers
are you saying manmade cameras are better than God's creation? come on... it's a sharp production no doubt but stop the blasphemy.
@@theplacebeyondthelies2429 Does my comment seriously come off as blasphemy to you?
Amazing craftsmanship
Awesome Winne. Great craftsmanship. Thanks for this wonderful video.
thanks, my pleasure
Neat workshop 🔨⛓️🔧🗜️🧰🔩 ..and thank you.
Wow! Beautiful instrument. I have tried to make my own flutes from bamboo but I have never been able to produce something that has pleasing sound that I want. The urge is back to make something I can n happily play that's how I landed here. This is amazing and I was hoping to learn the technical part of the design like length of the tube and the hole diameter, to tune.. hole positions..but that part is not given here I wonder if that is information you can share..for the love of music but hey! You are a maestro .and a great Craftsman so inspiring..
The wood of the jelly ear mushroom. ... love it .
Wow so easy....... I mean watching the video 😁😁😁😁 Super workmanship....
very well done, flute and vid kudos to Onno

Дякую вам за працю, хай щастить
Entire of my life, I only know that flute is made from bamboo not from wood. It a first time for me. Big brother you are God gifted.
bamboo is wood
Beautiful and good sound
I would like to appreciate the Editor and Director here 🎉❤️
Brilliant camera work and editing 👌👌👌❤️
Nice cinematography man
Very satisfying to watch
This is beautiful and satisfying to watch.
This is magical! ❤🙏
Que Bonita que es la Madera y aún falta terminarla.
I will like to pay to learn making this flute! Bravo you are a "maestro". Greatings from italy
making one flute requires so much expertise..you have done it beautifully..god bless.
thanks :-)
Such love for the craft; masterpiece. Wah🙏🌹
:)
Awesome. I would like to see how you did the windway, though.
just a fipple, like in a recorder- and some things have to remain mysterious no?
@@1fujara I'm still making mine with limes, but they come up in the tube slowly. I designed a simple machine, made mostly of wood, but I haven't built it yet. I would be grateful if you had a simple automation plan for making windways. Heh
beautyful video
ITS SO CINEMATIC
Such a wonderful video. It moved me deeply...cannot put it in words, the process is shown so beautifully... Just wonderful. Many greetings! Meike
Perfect, great work. 🙏
very beautiful winne!!!
overtoneflute Thanks Max! Hope all is well :-)
Exquisite craftsmanship. Would you be willing to sell schematics on how to make one of these? I'm not
great at woodworking or playing the flute, but I love working on both skills
Classic concept
Very nice... I love seeing all the different "fipple", whistle, or air-splitting edge arrangements from around the world and over time. They seem to get freely flipped upside down. I sure wish I knew technically how you bore it, as I am only using the split in half, router bit method at present. Some people use a $350 gun boring bit on a prohibitively expensive type of lathe (I do have a very basic 14" x 40" wood lathe with no cross slides or anything). I sounded almost like you were just carefully using a hand drill.
I use a type of spoonbit that I welded in a long ord, inserted in a handdrill :) , but you could use a gundrill on your lathe as well, I do it to on the lathe , just you just ned a center guise and then you can just drill by holding the gundrill in your hands.
@@1fujara thanks three years later :) I finally started using a gun drill from Sterling about 6 mo. ago and just use it attached to the tail stock, and slide with my hands. I would like to get a router setup to assist in turning the outside. But it needs to be a decent one, because sometimes I do not turn mine straight. but make faux bamboo nodes and rings and things, so the Vega on the lathe, or a vintage Legacy Ornamental Mill would work. I don't want to go CNC or automated at all, despite having experience. But over three years I developed different grades of embellished or simple Native American style flutes at Otter Lake Flutes. I look forward to learning a different fipple or whistle mechanism, such as kaval and so many others... relatively similar to Irish low whistle etc. when compared to NAF. It's been a journey, and I'm hoping to get more into making and less into marketing which takes up 60% of every onesie and twosies, taking extended photo-shoots, and demos and things. If I wholesale little half-dozen lots to a well-known player and reseller then I can concentrate on what has become my real trade now. But yes, I went to Sterling Gun Drills and they are excellent :) thanks again, you told me the same thing Jon Norris did about how you can start out holding the bit if you like.
les images sont magnifiques
thank you!
Wholesome 🌸EPICNESS🌸
Se ven geniales tienen para la venta
This video is a masterpiece!
Awe. I was hoping you would play it. How do you know if its in tune? Beautiful art work. Wish I could play it. Love the mellowness the wood gives. Metals do ok. But wood flute always have such a warmer fuller note
@oddjobbob By his ears :-D
Very very nice
I've never seen such a beautiful video 😍✨ May God bless you!! Jesus loves you and he's coming soon ❤️
That is very good craft and your video is very well done! Respect & thank you!!
What a great craftsmanship, wonderful !
Beautiful
Душа рассветлилась
Душа рассветлилась, как утро весной,
признав в этом акте несметное чудо,
внимая портрету над тогой простой,
и приобрела вкус, что ищут под пудрой.
Она распознала в увиденном рай,
который когда-то утратила пара,
и стала душистой, как липовый чай,
легонько клубящийся дымкой тумана.
Всё это случилось, как в сказках Руси,
в момент многозвездья сентябрьской ночи.
Ваш вид, что стихом моим изобразим,
наполнил теплом, что уж не обесточить.
Порою Вы снитесь всю тьму напролёт,
порой забегаете в сон на минуту,
бывает, что час кинообраз живёт,
случается так, что мелькнёт на секунду.
Как юный сновидец, поймавший мирок,
Вас вижу живым и отчётливым планом,
как фильм, что смотрю с наслажденьем и впрок,
что был награждён жёлтой веточкой в Каннах.
Пускай я не так уж богат и велик,
как славный анфас, что июль излучает,
я скоростижно влюбился в Ваш лик
и всё то вокруг, что его дополняет!
Love it!
amaizng work . and also so nice video !!! ;) love it
SOUND HEALING DUBLIN Samara Tenzin thanks :-)
Amazing
Thank for this wonderful offering... : )
Wonderful video, love it!
Your work is just outstanding, I´m so blessed and excited.Can´t wait until I receive my Kaval. This video will definitely be shared a lot of times.
Greetings,
~Flo
Amazing 😳👍
Huauuuu.
What kind of wood do you use? How long does it have to mature since you cut it?
Thanks❤️🙏🏻
Lindo esse trabalho. Alguém sabe o nome correto dessa broca que foi usada para fazer o furo de ponta a ponta ?
amazing production all 3 things audio, visual and craft go hand in hand, what's the name of the soundtrack exactly?
Thanks a lot for your video! Can you explain how to do it? I want to do it so much.🙏🙏🙏🌈🎶🎵🎶
Wow, i wanna make one!
Very beautifull job!!. Wich kind of wood do you use? Do you use american ash? Thanks and congratulations for your art!
Hi, I use Sambucus Nigra for this one, black elderberry
Craftsman: •blows on sawdust•
Flute:• eagerly gives out brief choking note•
...
Craftsman: *dont rush it we are not there yet*
Yup!!!
And three years later and im still waiting for my flute 🖕🏻🇺🇸
thats what she said
Nice video
Beautiful!
once you puted the juniper block, how are you doing for take it out again for the finition? and how do you make the air channel?
marvelous work here! i would like to see more video like that on youtube
I use a weight inside the tube to knock it out
The kaval is an oblique flute without a whistle. He has made a hybrid that is not a kaval per se.
V.informative.❤
Clicked on the video because of that long-ass pencil lead, stayed thanks to the excellent content.
Hah interesting story, glad the long pencil head that acted as clickbait in your case did not dissapoint!
Such a good video ! I have a question, how do you precisely drill the wood all the way through ? Any kind of special drill bit or setup that you could explain ?
I strech the wood and go trough it with a hand forged type of spoonbit
Great craftmanship!! Can you tell me,what kind of oil do you use for finishing?
I make a mixture based on boiled lineseed oil
Winne Clement,,,, , Thank you for your reply. But is it safe? Some people say,,,there are chemicals in boiled linseed oil for faster evaporization. Will raw linseed oil do the work? What do you use to make the mixture? Before soaking in oil,,you rubbed the flute. What have you used there?,,,,, I know, I am asking a lot. Please,do not mind.
It depends on the manufacturer , check the label. raw lineseed oil gives trouble and can get sticky when its hot. I rubbed the flute with shellac -cheers!
Why and how do you set it on fire? Is it a way to cure the wood in an instant?
Oh no, the wood is cured slowly for over 3 years. I burn the inside the make polishing more easy and the result better.
@@1fujara Thank you for a clear answer!
wonderful work!
i might try my hand at this.
do you ream with the sand paper to a taper or just have the diameter consistent?
i actually want to make a large bass one.
any comment on species?
ill use white oak or cedar for the mouth piece bit, but may use silver maple for the body.
sugar is very heavy, but silver is much lighter.
i’ve thought of mixing densities to mess with tone, but do worry about seasonal expansion/contraction.
im guessing you exclusively use roundwood and cut out the heartwood?
i wonder what using split wood and using a mix of sap and heart wood do for tone.
perhaps someone has experimented.
im a mostyly a string musician and woodworker that has made a violin, but i don’t even play any woodwind or brass. love the sound of bass recorders, bassoons, oboes, etc.
Hola. Cual es la fórmula para calcular la distancia de los agujeros y su diámetro respectivo?? Gracias
so beautiful~
thank you
