Happiness is having a greenhouse for my peppers and tomatoes! Also, having a batch of some 25 Folk Flutes in boxwood and blackwood all turned and ready for tuning and voicing all week.

Its kind of weird stuff to work. After cutting a bunch of 3/4" thinwall for clips that hold the plastic covering on, my bandsaw and part of my shop has all of this PVC frass sticking to everything sort of with a static cling. Enough so that it is hard to vacuum up.

Good work Casey. There's a lot of plastic pipe in my shop. Besides whistles and flutes, I've made low hoop houses (early planting and pest control), tomato cages, trellises, guitar stands, casual furniture, scrim frames, outdoor video screen frames, etc. from PVC. My wife has balked at the full size greenhouse thing though. It might be a tad warmer here than where you are located.

indeed, perhaps a couple o'tads

What are plants doing in yer PVC music room?

Hope that one of them is mine....I hope.... I hope..

Hey Skyspirit,
Let us know how you get on with your new small hand ego flute.
(I have hand issues too.)

I read the thread title and stuck my head out the window to see if the sky was falling.

I will. I am also having arthritis issues.... Going to adjust how I hold my flute..... Boxwood should also be lighter than my current flute.

Hi Casey,

One of your blackwood folk flutes arrived at my place yesterday. It was very hard to follow your instructions and not play the flute too much at the start, because she sounds beautiful. Thank you for my flute. Add another very satisfied customer to the throng.

Sincerely,

Matt

The Greenhouse was on weekends and I need to go out and weed already. This is what I made during the weekdays. All getting sent out into the world this week.

Right around now is the date that I made my first flute ever, 30 years ago. Somewhere I might have the exact date written down. But I know it was sometime near the 4th of July.

Casey
