Roll your own.
Finished a couple of whistles this weekend. About my third attempt. This time I actually got out a fairly playable product. Pure copper save for a polyclay fipple block I cooked here at home. Key of Eb, cause I didn't have an Eb. Also have a C body I painted and isn't dry yet.
Anyway.

Pictures at the bottom. Still rough and needing polishing. Sorry about the crappy quality.
Mp3 under the name "home made copper whistle"
Yes I know it aint much, but I managed to get it out and still have enough fingers to play it with. I've played worse.

My opinion is stupid and wrong.

Fipple design?
The pictures of your whistle show an interesting fipple design. Please describe how you constructed the fipple and whether you were working from plans or not.

- Tell us something.: I play whistles. I sell whistles. This seems just a BIT excessive to the cause. A sentence or two is WAY less than 100 characters.
I don't hear any swirly sound on my end. But I do hear him trying to inhale the whistle during breaths.fearfaoin wrote:VB: What did you do to the clip scartaglen.mp3?
It has an unusual "swirly" sound on my computer.
Is that an electronic effect, or some way you're playing (what I'm assuming is a Jubilee practice Low D), or am I just hearing things?
Takes a bit of air, doesn't it!!!

I think that's a combination of using a really crappy mic and then trying to clean it up with software.
I figured out some of those problems.
I need to put some more up. I have a few more low d's now. Also a pvc which I made last night. Hopefully I can turn out another one tonight. I've had a bit of practice now, and I may return to trying to work with the cane I cut back last year. Gee, I guess I could call a cane whistle I made a ......lets see.......how bout a vomboo whistle?
Um....you know....vomit/bamboo......vomboo.
