Bocote with African Ebony
The grain in the Bocote called for tuning in a great middle eastern scale known as Hijaz in G#. Six holes on top with one octave thumb hole on the underside.

The Ultimate Gift
For Christmas I wanted to do something special for my 2 boys, hand made flute to last a lifetime. The first for my son Easton 11 years old, made of White Ash from his Grandfathers forest with Black Walnut and Cocobolo accents, in mid F#. Finished in tung oil and beeswax.
The second for my 7 year old son Seamus, made of the same White Ash but with Jarrah in red (his favorite color) and Tagua nut(poor man's ivory) in High C#. Finished in tung oil and beeswax.
