Finished!

So, my first flute is done despite a bit of a learning curve, and it turned out great. Here are the last few photo's of it as I finished up the project.

Here I'm about half way through the tuning process. You can see the bottom three holes are quite large compared to the pilot holes I drilled for the top three which hadn't been tuned yet at this point int he process.

Here I've completed tuning the flute and am almost done putting on the shellac to give the flute its finished look. (other students from the class working on various stages of their flutes in the background.)
There's the finished flute at home on our coffee table. I've yet to get a picture with my camera that really shows how nice it turned out. My instructor helped a good bit with this flute so I can't quite claim this one as my own. I'm well into my next flute however, and its going remarkably well. Updates on that to follow soon!!!
