William does everything with intention, integrity and care. I have attended his workshops, played and owned instruments... made by him, and used employed his artistic/design skills- always to my full satisfaction. Recently have been impressed with his feather protector spray. I would stand by and reccommend any of his products and services 100%.read more

There's something very special about creating something with your hands - something that did not previously exist and... now does because of your vision and effort. William's workshop was a great joy to attend and I love the flute I was able to make as a result of his instruction and guidance. Also, I picked up some great tips I can apply to the flutes I make using bamboo or pvc. All around a great experience. Very recommended.read more
