 Somewhere on the net I found plans for a small brass whistle to put on
a necklace or keychain. Usually made as a present for a female. I
can't find the plans that I thought I'd downloaded. I want to make a
few for my niece, sister and sister-in-law. Anyone remember it or got
a link?
It was tubular.
Thanks
Karl

Looks kind of neat. Now if I only had some ambition :)

Errol Groff was kind enough to put it on the NEMES site several years
ago. I still need to make them.

its been a while.

I was glad to see that Kevin was able to point you in the right
direction. I probably would have jumped in sooner to help but my
computer ws at the computer hospital for almost a week getting
brought back from the brink of destruction.

As luck would have it I was soldering whistles today getting ready for
the NAMES show. For the past many years NEMES has been making
whistles and giving out to kids at Cabin Fever, our club show and
NAMES. I would guess that my students and I have made at least 1000
of the darn things. I have made a solomn vow that next year no
whistles. Enough is enough!

Regards,

Errol Groff
