Thank you so very much for watching and for such an uplifting comment! I have been drawn to the Ney because it is such a seemly simple instrument but produces such hauntingly beautiful music. It's the perfect expression of what Man and Nature can do when we come together in harmony and mutual respect of each others abilities! Thanks again for watching, Stay Creative!
Thank you so much, I haven't been as active as I should be in the past year, but thanks so much for saying what you said! It is much appreciated, I hope to continue with interesting and enjoyable content as often as I can! Stay creative!
Thanks for watching! While I'm not a professional flute maker or Ney maker, I was just using site instructions I found online and it worked, I hope it works well for you too! Getting the sound to produce is the toughest part, good luck and Stay Creative!
Ευχαριστώ πάρα πόλι για τα καλά σου λόγια! Εγώ απλός αγαπάω την φύση, και όταν την δίνουμε λίγο αγάπη, μας δίνει δέκα φορές τόσο σε επιστροφή! Ξανά ευχαριστώ φίλε μου!
Thanks for watching and for the positive feedback! I live in Europe, the reeds used to make these flutes grow quite readily around here. Stay Creative!
@@universe7761 my friend I think it would be imprudent to discuss details of that nature on an open social platform such as UA-cam, but thanks again for your interest. Message me on Facebook if you'd like.
Thank you so very much for taking the time to watch and comment! It means so much to me that you enjoyed the video. I am not a porfessional Ney maker by any means, but I just wanted to try my hand at it and I was pleased with the results. Thanks again for watching, stay creative!
Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment! I'm not by any means a professional Ney maker and I know I did a few things not so traditionally, but in the end it was a learning experience and I had fun and have an enjoyable instrument to play.

You are very welcome my friend you look like a professional to me. And I've been doing woodworking for quite a while. I really appreciate you taking the time to respond that is so very kind of you. when you get a chance if you would like to check out my majestic butterfly video on my channel. From what I saw on your channel I think you might really like it. And thank you so much again from Doug
Thanks for watching! I've long since gifted this flute to a friend so I can't remember the exact measurements. But if memory serves, I show the length in the video plus a rough method for measuring the distance between holes. Since I made this video over 3 years ago now, I have been contacted by many lovely people who have informed me that is method of determining the scale length is not the same as a true Turkish Ney, but is rather a more westernized scale formation. That said, this flute plays wonderfully, but is indeed a bit more limited than a Ney. Thanks again for watching, Stay Creative!
First off, thanks for watching I hope you enjoyed the process. The song is listed in the description of the video, its by Omar Faruk Tekbilek and title of the song is "Why" its always been one of my favorites. While I may not be a professional Ney maker, I do have a profound respect for the instrument and just wanted to take a shot at producing one, I'm pleased with how it came out. Thanks again for watching and for taking the time to comment, stay creative!
Thanks for watching! I used the method I show in the video and as long as your fingers are able to cover the holes completely, I'm sure you can use any size of hole you want as long as you follow the spacing shown in the video. This is because a lot of notes are reached by only partially covering certain holes while increasing or decreasing the pressure with which you are blowing. This is an incredibly complex instrument and my version is the absolute most bare bones version of an end blown flute there is, plus, I'm NOT a professional take my experience with a grain of salt. Thanks again for watching, stay creative! 🙂
Thanks for watching! In the video it shows that I measured this one to a length of 57cm. Depending on what key you are aiming for, the reed must be longer or shorter and the reed must be slightly thicker or thinner. My attempt at making one these ancient instruments was a modest attempt at best as I am not a professional Ney or flute maker. Thanks again for watching, Stay Creative!
Thanks so much for watching! The plant is a common reed called Arundo Donax that is similar to bamboo and has been used for millenia to make instruments with. Thanks again for watching, Stay Creative!
First off, thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment. This Ney really only took me about a day to complete, I'm not a professional Ney maker and don't claim to be so I'm sure a proper Ney would take longer and require quite a bit more precision. But I always admired this instrument and details about how to build them are closely guarded traditional secrets, so I did what I could from observation and a little bit of musical knowledge. Thanks again for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed. Stay creative!
Thanks for watching, I'm just building it as I saw in another video, the method of measuring is far from precise I know, but it works and the notes are generally in line and intune within a few semitones. Thanks for taking the time to comment, stay creative!
My friend, I'm sorry you felt the need to split venom in such a public place, but I never claimed to be a professional Ney maker or player. I simply admire this instrument and decided to follow instructions I had gleaned from several sites online as well as real life experience. I'm sorry if you felt that my attempt was not so good, but in the end, I'm a maker and my passion is to create things to the best of my ability, even though I might not make or play them as well as the best. Thanks for watching, Stay Creative!
Que buen video ,auténtico y con esa música espiritual y como dicen algunos comentarios de la naturaleza misma❤

Ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ φίλε, θα δούμε τι θα γίνει στο μέλλον.
I have a few questions:
1. how long is the Ney in cm?
2. And at what distance in cm are the sound holes placed?
Thanks for watching! I've long since gifted this flute to a friend so I can't remember the exact measurements. But if memory serves, I show the length in the video plus a rough method for measuring the distance between holes. Since I made this video over 3 years ago now, I have been contacted by many lovely people who have informed me that is method of determining the scale length is not the same as a true Turkish Ney, but is rather a more westernized scale formation. That said, this flute plays wonderfully, but is indeed a bit more limited than a Ney. Thanks again for watching, Stay Creative!
@@FromTheHeartWoodMK thank you so much for the reply. I will watch it again carefully 😊
What's the name of the background song? Love it
First off, thanks for watching I hope you enjoyed the process. The song is listed in the description of the video, its by Omar Faruk Tekbilek and title of the song is "Why" its always been one of my favorites. While I may not be a professional Ney maker, I do have a profound respect for the instrument and just wanted to take a shot at producing one, I'm pleased with how it came out. Thanks again for watching and for taking the time to comment, stay creative!
How do you work out the hole positions for different bore sizes?
Thanks for watching! I used the method I show in the video and as long as your fingers are able to cover the holes completely, I'm sure you can use any size of hole you want as long as you follow the spacing shown in the video. This is because a lot of notes are reached by only partially covering certain holes while increasing or decreasing the pressure with which you are blowing. This is an incredibly complex instrument and my version is the absolute most bare bones version of an end blown flute there is, plus, I'm NOT a professional take my experience with a grain of salt. Thanks again for watching, stay creative! 🙂
What is the measure of the stick?
Thanks for watching! In the video it shows that I measured this one to a length of 57cm. Depending on what key you are aiming for, the reed must be longer or shorter and the reed must be slightly thicker or thinner. My attempt at making one these ancient instruments was a modest attempt at best as I am not a professional Ney or flute maker. Thanks again for watching, Stay Creative!
como se llama la planta que usaste para fabricar la flauta ?
Thanks so much for watching! The plant is a common reed called Arundo Donax that is similar to bamboo and has been used for millenia to make instruments with. Thanks again for watching, Stay Creative!
Looks and sounds beautiful, how long did this take to make (drying aside)?
First off, thank you so much for watching and for taking the time to comment. This Ney really only took me about a day to complete, I'm not a professional Ney maker and don't claim to be so I'm sure a proper Ney would take longer and require quite a bit more precision. But I always admired this instrument and details about how to build them are closely guarded traditional secrets, so I did what I could from observation and a little bit of musical knowledge. Thanks again for watching, I'm glad you enjoyed. Stay creative!
Next time this hole->👍 , make in center of Ney ,
Thanks for watching, I'm just building it as I saw in another video, the method of measuring is far from precise I know, but it works and the notes are generally in line and intune within a few semitones. Thanks for taking the time to comment, stay creative!
Ni sabes hacer un ney ni sabes tocar ...vaya timo
