Entry-level flutes are made of nickel silver and plated silver often, but some are Nickel plated. Most top players will benefit less slippery silver clad models, often sweaty hands to make a slide flute.
Ribbed construction is recommended, as mail and the key mechanisms are subject to the rib [a strip of metal connected to the tube] and not directly in the tube body. This helps build the alignment and strength of the mechanics of the flute.

Continuing Education – Student for Life
In 2004-2006, I attended and completed the practical portion of a highly specialized program focusing on brass and woodwind repair at Keyano College. The Music Instrument Repair Program (M.I.R.) is the only one of its kind in Canada. The Program offers students a comprehensive foundation of repair theory coupled with practical application followed up with industry feedback and guidance.
During my time at Keyano, I developed a deep interest in flute repair. In 2007, this interest took me to Straubinger Flutes in Indianapolis, Indiana where I received specialized training and certification for the installation and servicing of Straubinger pads.
Part of a Larger Organization
N.A.P.B.I.R.T. (National Association of Professional Band Instrument Repair Technicians), of which I have been a member since 2004, is an international professional association comprised of musical instrument repair technicians from all over the world. A network of colleagues, mentors and friends, the Association encourages the continuing growth of the industry’s knowledge base through its newsletter, yearly conferences, and workshops.
