  • In the information section, I added link to a post on my website with instructions.

  • Thanks! I can't seem to post links in this comment section. If you go to my website, there is a "making of" post where I talk about how I made the flute.

  • Ha, Sleepy Monk! Great coffee.

  • upgrade that shit to bamboo

  • I have just made 2, and both didn't sound well. I like the look of your PVC shakuhachi. It looks better than those using the joint to make the mouthpiece. I am sure going to make another one using your method!

  • I have just started learning Shakuhachi. Would you recommend me to buy a PVC shakuhachi as well as a bamboo? (for practice) I found it very difficult playing lower notes on my 18-1/2 inch shakuhachi.

    And great video by the way! Very inspiring for new players!

  • Holy balls! I'm making one now.

  • holy mother fucking shit

  • I finally just bought one. I'm still waiting for it to come in though as it has to travel a long way. It's PVC like this one. I have the parts to make a pvc one but most of them are in the closet and I live in a very strict condo complex so there isn't much room to work. For 20 bucks though, (12 bucks plus 8 dollars shipping) I can just buy one as I would probably never get around to actually putting the parts together. I was also not sure about how to measure the angle before cutting.

  • How long have you been playing Shakuhachi and how much previous experience do you have with other woodwinds and the like. You play very well.

  • nice i am trying to make one as we speak i got 20 pipe cut and watching vids and trying to make it. great job
