How to make a traditional willow whistle / Pajupilli

- Easy and quick DIY project. The late spring and early summer is the best time to make willow whistles because then willow bark comes off easiest.
Kevät on parasta aikaa tehdä pajupilli.
Be safe. Do not do what I do!

My grandfather made one for me when i was a kid. I was thrilled. I still have that very whistle today...40 or so yrs later.
Awesome.
It’s important to do this in the spring when the bark is wet between the main part of the wood otherwise it’s too hard to loosen.
Thanks pal, you answered without me having to ask !
During fall and winter can we soak the wood in water to loosen it up?
I'd been racking my brain trying to remember how my daddy taught me to do this!!! Thank you so much for posting it.
Well done sir! Almost exactly how my old man showed me to do it some forty years ago in Norway.
He stressed that you must allways make the mouthpiece in the thin end of the stick so that the bark wont crack when you pull it off.
I also carve just through the brown part in the center, makes a sligthly different tone I guess.
But yours worked fine also, so again; well done.
You took me back many decades, when i was still a kid and my grandpa was still alive, great memories, *Thanks*
Thanks for watching.
R.I.P to your grandfather :(
My grandpa also used to make wooden whistles for my sisters and I. I could never remember what type of tree and what time of year to make them though. Memories I hold near and dear to my heart and clearly I’m not alone in this. I’m sure you miss your grandfather as much as I miss mine.
My dad taught me how to make these as a kid. This is a nice trip down memory lane for me.
In my childhood, when I lived near the forest, we also made such whistles and even pipes with my friends. The best were elderberry or hazelnut branches.
My dad and I spent hours making those when I was a kid about 40 years ago. I will be teaching my grandkids to do the same thing. Thank you very much for the video. Awesome.
It's fun that my mom told me how to make those when I was a kid.

WNC Portable Sawmilling your comment is exactly like “thank you Kanye, very cool!”
my dad showed me how to make it when i was younger 🖒😍
good man did his job! 😆👍🏼💯
nice
Thanks, im tryingnto learn how to whittle a whistle and this really helped, my and my friend made spitball guns and i really want to make some more.
Oh yeah and awesome video
Wow! One of the coolest talents I've seen in awhile
You can make them from hickory too! As a kid I made whistles out of creek cane!
Gonna try that with my son thanks
Well that is different. I've never seen anything like that before. Very cool and beautiful knife you got there.
Thanks!

That knife he got was from roblox lol jk but it’s a sick knife
This is great! I hope to make this tomorrow.
This works best at spring time when the bark is loose.
Beautiful beautiful knife there
My grandpa made one of these for me when i was about 5. I'm 48 now. I think i drove my parents crazy blowing that thing for hours. I think gramps got in more trouble for making it than i did blowing it. Now i try to buy the noiseiest toys i can find for my friends kids birthdays and always make sure they have new batteries in them.
Hi could you tell me the best seceteurs to get, yours went through the wood like it was butter! Look forward to your reply, John.
Absolutely amazing skill .... thanks for sharing .... Steve UK
Thanks for watching Steve!
Love this video..thank you
how deep do you carve the notch to make a shriller sound? And how long does it take before the bark comes of?
Cool, thanks for sharing.
Thanks.
My grandpa taught me how to do this but i forgot... he also died when i was 10 (22 year ago now) so we couldn't do repeat trips and bond over fishing and stuff like that :(
Thank you:)
Wow, thanks, I will impress the females with this one
Omg its Timo Korpi! 😨
Hyvä kanava
My grandfather use to make these for us as kids in the 1960s
Thanks you 😍
Nice
Thanks I'm going to try tomorrow :)
Cool. It works best in the spring.
yeah i was thinking about that :)
Wow
What is about the little hole? Is it natural?
Oh my god you are amazing at weaponcraft i make hoemade things like pvc bows great job
I tried it followed all the steps but can't seem to twist off the branch inside just blistering up my hands
Nandy Dodd
Late spring i the best time to do this for that reason. you can also try to soak it in water for 10 minutes or so. Thanks for watching.
Same
Hi, is there any way to make the bark come off easier? I've harvested a bit further into summer and I can't get the bark off, any ideas? I'm trying soaking it now.
Simon Roome I think soaking is the only way.
Thanks, in progress, luckily I took some elder too so I've made 1 and a half of those while waiting :)
Have any of you guys read the book my side of the mountain?
Great video and I love the knife! What is it?
Thanks. I made that knife years ago.
McGiver meets the music
During winter and fall is it possible to soak the wood in water to make the bark come off easily?
🤷
I've been trying to make these for years.Have had no success.Would like more of a detailed explanation of what you're doing and the shape and depth and whatever it is because i've tried it and cannot get it to work
All i know that best time to make these is srpring. The bark is easier to remowe. If it does not work blow harder. If still no luck adjust the air path or the depth of the hole in the wood or bark. Make sure that the hole in the bark has a clean cut. Good luck.
nice what tipe of wood did you use?
I used willow!
Muistan kun tein isoisäni kanssa tämmösen ;D
I am trying this near Christmas in Scotland & i cannot release the bark from the wo0d,is it the time of the year?
Yes. You need to do it when the growing season starts. You might be able to do this now if you soak wood in water. Thanks for watching.
Wow that rep-lie was faster than my microwave lol,ah yea i am trying that as we speak & thank you love your video on it watched it numerous of time thanks
Well i ain't gonna give yup on this one,but i never got the bark of after steeping it but it was older branches so ill lo0k tomorrow i will get something to whistle lol,thanks again. Have a nice 1.
You will get it.
does it have to be a willow branch or can it be any tipe of branch
Willow is the best wood for this, but you can try with similar type of wood.
By the way, what kind of knife are you using? Thank you.
Thanks for watching. I made that knife a few years ago.
how does it sound though ???
Watch the end.
true thank you
What type of wood is it? I’m new to whittling...
It's willow.
Good
What kind of wood can you use to make this?
Willow
@@Lazywatchsmith Thank you
I cut a branch from a willow yesterday but the bark was dry and crumbling. Am I too late or too early ?
It works best at spring.
@@Lazywatchsmith Thanks friend
What did you make the knife from
Daniel Davis I bought a cheap knife and modifiend the blade a bit. Then i made a new handle from scrap wood and brass. I also etched the blade to make the pattern on it.
What kind of knife is she, very beautiful.
Thanks. I mede it acouple years ago
What knife are you using
I made that knife.
Make a video on diy wood cutting tools

Mikä ton puukon nimi on?
niilo parkour
Sopisko vaikka Reino? No vitsi vitsi. oon tehny sen itse niin ei sillä oo nimee. Kiitos kun katsoit!
Lazy watchsmith ui hitto on hieno jos oot ite tehny, it oon kans hurahtanu ihan puukkojen tekoonn tekoon. Mistä teräksestä teit sen?
Ostin motonetistä halvan rosteripuukon ja muokkasin terää pikkusen. Kahvan tein sitte kokonaan ite. Terään tein ne kuviot ensin permanenttitussilla ja sitte etsasin suolavedessä sähkön kanssa. Mä tykkäisin myös tehdä puukkoja mutta ei huvita yhtään se tupen tekeminen.
Triangle of death!!!
good Job sir! i make native american flutes :-) maybe i gonne make one good video for you people ;-) proud to be indian ;-)
That would be awesome. Thanks for watching.
Native American* not indian I don't understand how people make this mistake #imaassholeforlife 👌
I am interested in learning to make woodwind instruments, my uncle is a luthier and interested in teaching me to build/repair guitars, but to make different styles of traditional block/transverse flutes and panflutes might be fun and could be a little sideline for us, if I could even sell them on fairly cheap it could be an earner, plus I'd love to learn more about these instruments in general as I love my woodwinds, particularly recorders and other traditional block flutes, lovely sounding instruments!
bark wolnt come off
can someone tell me what knife he has?
I made that knife my self. The blade is from cheap stainles steel knife. I made some modifications to the blade and the handle is all my doing. Wood and brass. Thanks for watching.
Lazy watchsmith it's amazing and I subbed
Thanks. That comment made my week.
Lazy watchsmith 👍
Awesome video. Awesome knife you made.
vai että pajupilli tuli tehtyä
That is pajupilli

instructions unclear, my cat is in the fridge
Hi! Why you call it Pajupil? In Estonian language it is called "pajupill" what means "willow music instrument" or willow whistle
It should say pajupilli. 😖
Yes :) but how do you know that name at all?
Im from Finland and in Finnish willow whistle is called pajupilli.
Selvä! I am inkerisuomalainen :) But born in Estonia.
I use your video as a tutorial for children studying at home :)
What knife is that?? Were did you get it
I made that knife over 4 years ago. Thanks for watching!

Ok. If you say so. I made that knife before i started making videos on youTube. Thanks for watching.

Thanks. I made it 3years back.
Are you born talented or you learned somewhere ?
LOL. I just love to make stuff. Thanks for this comment it made my day. By the way I'm just making a new video about wooden whistle.
Cool waiting for that
The new video is ready for you to watch!

Sori en puhu ruotsia.
If you did that the full length of the stick and made a row of holes in the bark maybe you'd play us an Irish jig? Show us some real skill as opposed to just a singular high pitched note
I don't have any real skills.
Music ruins the video. Would rather have him narrate what he is doing.
Not with my english.
Correction : pajupill
