My Bone Flutes are made with turkey bones, copper or bamboo. I make them in the same manner as old prehistoric Eagle Bone or Turkey Bone Flutes. I melt homemade pine pitch glue made from Pinyon pine sap and charcoal or ash and shape it into the bore of the flute, I also use a method using superglue and ashes to make the inner plug of a bone flute or whistle.  I also make whistles that only have the sound hole and no finger holes. 

Flutes range from 5 inches to 8 inches long with 1 to 3 holes. These Bone Flutes are meant to imitate Eagles and other birds.

DISCLAIMER: Eagle bones are illegal to sell, trade or barter. I only work with Eagle bones that are legally obtained.
