Meet our Pre Tuned Native American style A flute making kit.
This is a beginner to intermediate level carving kit tuned to the key of A with a bright and cheerful voice. 

The kit includes a unshaped, fully playable, western red cedar A flute, a flat block base, a larger carving block, a leather strap, and a booklet with instructions for making and playing the flute. The flute kit has been expertly tuned and voiced. It features the pentatonic minor scale in the key of A. The finger hole spacing makes this a great key for new flute players with small to medium sized hands. Children can play this key with supervision. 

The two include blocks both have the precisely routed groove in the bottom. The small flat block base is ideal for gluing objects to. Consider attaching a carving, a small piece of driftwood, a gemstone, or a small sculpture to this block to adorn your new flute!

The larger carving block is shaped in such a way that it will not impede the air flow of the block and it is large enough that you can carve many interesting things out of it.

Flute Totem Carving Block - Unfinished Animal Cutouts with 7/16ths Groove

$10.00

Looking for a way to gussy up your flute? Our unfinished flute blocks are the perfect accessory for the woodworking enthusiast! These animal shaped flute totems are unfinished, rough shapes, with the groove in the bottom milled and sealed. Get your carving tools! These blocks need to be shaped, sanded, and varnished!

Add extra details by wood burning, painting, staining, and inlaying stones into these cutouts. We’ve done the precise groove milling, so these are ready for your creativity to take flight!
The groove in these blocks milled to a 7/16ths inch width which is perfect for all three of our flutes making kits as well as any Premiere or Beginner flute in the keys of A, G, F#, F, E. You can double check with me before purchasing or measure your existing flute to make sure the width of the sound hole matches the 7/16” wide groove in these blocks. Some stellar flutes in D, C, and B will also use this size of block, but it is best to ask before buying!

When sold separately these blocks will come with a piece of leather for tying the block on, when added to a kit order, they only come with extra leather upon request since the kits already come with leather.
