I did the mouth piece pretty close to the video. My recorder doesn’t have any sound besides air when I blow into it. Any ideas why? I’ve got a musical instrument project for my physics class next Thursday and need to figure out how to fix mine or try something else. Any help would be greatly appreciated
@@MNdaTV I can’t seem to find your Facebook but I pushed the mouthpiece down to allow more air through and that worked a bit so I’ll have to fiddle around with that.
*I have such a problem that instead of a flute I made a whistle because with a gentle blowing there is no sound and with a strong one it is very loud and in the flute it should be the other way around, i.e. a double blow creates a quiet sound and a strong one does not sound what I did wrong ?*
It's a recorder... that's how recorders (and to my knowledge, all fipple flutes) work. Why did you use this tutorial if you wanted the results of a different instrument?
@@moseyonover733 I wanted to make a recorder like you did in the movie, but something else came out, the sound is also produced, but with a very strong blast of air and thanks to it is different than in the recorder
Well the size of the hole was about 1/4 inch (or 6 mm) but the hole size of the wedge doesnt need to be exact, the size of the wedges wont change the pitch. As long as its a decent sized drill bit, you can use whatever sizw you wish.
@@forgingflame the measurements for that arent exact either, the true measurements you need are the inside diameter of the pipe (1/2 inch in this case) and the length from the top of the supply hole (right before the wedge) to the top of the instrument (the end you blow into). The incline just needs to be shallow (1 or 2 degrees) and increase towards the wedge. I would suggest between 1/16 or 1/8 inch on the shallower side, and slowly sand where needed to get the air to split well. And the incline has to be straight, there cant be any curves in the air path. But the inclines measurements dont have to be exact
@@forgingflame the Supply hole to the wedge doesnt change the pitch, the initial pitch is indicated by the length and diameter of the tupe, and that other pitches are based on the diameter of the holes and the placement along the flute. The reason for no sound could honestly be anything. It could improper placement of your dowel, a bad wedge, too deep of an incline, etc. Flutes and instruments like them are very delicate to make, and normally your first attempt wont play well, if at all. Dont be discouraged tho, everyone goes through that. You may just want to start from scratch, take your time with it and get it as accurate as your current skills can achieve, the more attention and time you put into it the better outcome you can get.
@@forgingflame does the instrument have to be a recorder? If time is your enemy and you were set on a wind instrument, i would highly suggest the Backyard Bowyer's pvc 6 hole flute
If anybody posts in the comments that they found this video helpful and they were able to successfully follow along and make a recorder of their own, I'm going to immediately call that person on their bullshit. While this video is interesting to watch, without a set of detailed instructions, that's all this video is. Just interesting to watch. Impossible to follow along, though, unless you already know how to make a PVC recorder. In which case, you wouldn't need to watch the video to begin with.
Inspired by this, i made a mini flute out of an old ballpoint pen, it's not really even a flute, it's more like a whistle that has 3 tones.
Looks fun for my daughter since of sound project loo❤❤😊😊
Coll
Thks helped a lot for my project
What you have made is a soprano flute in C major. If I wanted to make an alto flute in F major, what would the measurements be?
I don't know. You would have to do your own research. It won't be too difficult.
Chique demais meu mestre 10🤙🙌🎼🎼🎶🎶👏👏👏
Thanks a lot ⚘⚘👍🏽🌞
U made it ossum bro and thanks to you
That's really good
Clear, and easy
is it 2.5cm thick? what are thickness
What is the app you used to mesure the secureness of the sound?
Fred Morgan's Hell incarnated xD
very nice
Thank u sooo much I really needed this!
Good works beautiful flute 💯💥👌
Nice 👌👍🤗
Beautifully! Thanks!
Very Nice. Thank You.
Bro super o super
Ok... Can u please ping me background soundtrack u used... Its amazing 🤩🤩
where can I find a wooden dowel that is exactly 2.5cm
Hy dear, one humble question: why de back hole is necessary if it's always closed for all tones?
A recorder should have a range at least of some two octaves: a thumb hole makes easier to play the second octave.
Wow
Love it 😍😍
beautiful
Thank you sir
Woow ❤️
What is the angle of the Labium, ramp, lip ,edge. please.
Wow super top top
What can I use instead of the little piece of wood
Cork
أنك رائع😈😉😆😬🙌🙆👅💞💛
Where to get that cork Sir. Thnks
1/2 inch thick wooden dowel, got mine at a hardware store
Bhai trumpet kese banate hai uski bhi video daalo
awesome
يعطيك السحة مانة🎹🎼🎧🎺🎷
Is it necessary to make blowing part pointed?
Yes , if it si broad than it is not easy to play flute
Love it
Please, What is the total length of the pipe?
Some 30 cm, more or less.
Did you put something in the bottom of the recorder to make a sound? Mine only plays when I cover the bottom with my hand.
No I didn't. You have to check the mouthpiece again

@@tpfan3439 first time I made a recorder, it happened for me too. Try pushing back the dowel if it's sticking too much to the lip / window.
@@tpfan3439 DM me on my Facebook page and show me the mouthpiece

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻🌹🌹🎶🎶
What applications is for tuning the flute?
You can use any instrument tuner
@@MNdaTV okay, thank you

Bro what is the size of hole are all hole size is equal
I will make this
What is the back hole for and how did you make the f note?
The back hole if for changing to a higher register. F is all fingers down except your middle finger
OMG thinks I am so getting an A😙😄😇😆👑
Thanks
Good
Dude you never give the size of the hole that slipt the air.
Well the size of the hole was about 1/4 inch (or 6 mm) but the hole size of the wedge doesnt need to be exact, the size of the wedges wont change the pitch. As long as its a decent sized drill bit, you can use whatever sizw you wish.

It sounds like a violin?!?!😯😯😯
Bhai bn ja raha h lekin सही से आवाज नहीं आ पा रहा h
very dificulta with out meters
Why didnt it worked for me?
Which part didn't worked for you?
@@MNdaTV the part where i had to blow to make sound
@@MNdaTV and i need a substitution for the cork
I’m having trouble making a sound when blowing. Is it the cork I used or the whistle part of the recorder?
The Dogster your supposed to use wood, not cork
Your fibble (that little slope) might be misaligned, or the angle of the slope might not be right. Rotate the peg or file it some more.
@@StinkyShart69 you can use either
Sadly mine did not work but just gave me a headache
o my god
App used for tuning: tuner &metronome
Doesn’t work
For idiots
This did not work at all

Loser talk😄
Actually I thought it was quite easy to follow along, and my recorder works very well
