The material and structure of the mandrel

The man flute consists of three parts: the reed pipe, the main pipe and the resonator. The tube body is made of bamboo, mostly made of mangosteen grown on the local high mountains.

The reed pipe is a thin bamboo tube with a bamboo joint at the head, 10 cm long and an open end. The front tube body is thinned and flattened, and a sharp knife is used to carve a piece below 1.5 cm from the bamboo joint. A rectangular bamboo reed, the tail end of the tube is inserted into the mouth of the head end of the main tube.

The main tube is a long bamboo tube with a length of 140 cm. There are three or four circular sound holes in the lower part of the tube.

The resonance tube is a large bamboo tube with a height of 20 cm to 30 cm and an inner diameter of 6 cm to 8 cm.
