Hello,
     This one goes out to the makers. I'm experimenting with different
finishes for the shakuhachi. What do you all do to take precautions
against cracking after making the flute from stock bamboo material?
Anything tried and true? Or maybe," all flutes will eventually crack",
as I read from one master, " the question is when?".
Peace, Perry
