About

Woodworking minus patience equals firewood. (Anon.)
A man who works with his hands is a laborer; a man who works with his hands and his brain is a craftsman; but a man who works with his hands and his brain and his heart is an artist. ~Louis Nizer (1902–1994)Oldblue Flutes was a revelation that came to Sid while working in his wood shop. He has been a custom cabinet and furniture maker for over thirty years, professionally and as a hobby. He has always loved the sound and beauty of Native American flutes. With that idea was the birth of Oldblue Flutes & Woodworking.
After research and study for hundreds of hours, combined with his knowledge of wood and woodworking, he made his first flute and has not stopped since. Chris owned a home decor business and adds to the creativity. As a couple they work well together as they create a product of polished aesthetics.
