Members of this group have been great getting me started making and playing whistles, answering question after question. I really appreciate it. Though I'm a long way from making high quality whistles, and even further from being a really good player, I thought I should give you a sample so you'll know your advice is not being wasted.
The first link is a picture and the second is a sound sample of me playing the same whistle. Keep in mind that I'm a beginning player. But I think I managed the tune well enough to show what the whistle sounds like. It's 1/2" cpvc and the fipple block is cpvc rod from usplastics.com. The design is Guido's low tech whistle and I used Daniel Bingamon's spreadsheet for tone hole placement. While I added a little reverb to the recording, I didn't use any eq, compression or other affects. I think the recording is reasonably close to the way the whistle actual sounds.
Looks like a whistle and sounds like a whistle.
You're playing ain't half bad . . . pretty good in fact. I love that tune, it has lots of headroom for personal interpretation, your playing is proof of that.
