Has anyone made one? They look easy enough to make. Can the mouth piece be bought separately? I would like to buy one in order to help support the Abbots; however, it would be fun to make a few as a homeschooling project.
Yeah. The bamboo flutes can be very hard to make. We make ones out of PVC pipe to sell and that's very simple and can be made in an hour or two. Cheap, and sounds just as good as an expensive shakuhachi (It doesn't look as cool as the bamboo though). Go to http://www.playingbyear.com/blowingzen to see more.
