Where to Put the Holes for a Flute

Placing and Tuning Finger Holes in Flute Making

The notes of the flute are determined chiefly by the size and placement of the fingerholes. The chart below gives a rough guide to where to put the holes. The chart’s measurements are shown as percentages of distance from the mouth hole. All measurements are from hole centers, not edges.

Here are the two most important rules for tuning:

A hole will give a higher note if it is placed closer to the mouth hole. It will give a lower note if placed farther away.

A hole will give a higher note if made larger. It will give a lower note if smaller.

These rules mean you can “raise” a note by enlarging the hole or by placing the hole closer to the mouth hole. You can “lower” the note by using a smaller hole or by placing the hole farther from the mouth hole.

It also means you can change the hole size and its placement without changing the note. A larger hole could be placed farther from the mouth hole, or a smaller hole placed closer to the mouth hole.

For tuning, the notes of the flute can be compared to the notes of a piano, pitch pipe, or other tuning instrument. Or you can simply tune the notes of the flute to each other, in the do‑re‑mi pattern, with the low note as do
