4-hole ocarina in 2 minutes

Assembling a 4-hole ocarina can be very fast...but the tuning and decoration can take a looooonnnnnggggggg time....plus the initial bisque firing, and glazing and glaze firing, or painting it and putting a protective varnish over the whole thing....no wonder ceramics ocarinas are generally more costly than plastic ones......

you can use regular water-based clay, or air drying clay or super sculpey. You should be able to buy one of these types in your local craft store.

I made one but when I got done makeing it no matter what I did I could not get it to make noise. Could you tell me some thing that might make that happen?

[caieros]

@TheLegendlugia make sure your windway thickness is not more than a popscicle thickness(slightly less is better.) The sound whole should not be too big, about the diameter of a normal pen. When looking from where you blow, the edge of the ram(labium) should be about in the middle(use light to shine it from the soundhole). goodluck.
