- Here's how to make a 4-toned train whistle made using a scrap piece of a 2x4 board. These make great stocking-stuffers or gifts. Kids love them.
This is also a good project to make if you have limited tools. All of my sawing could easily be accomplished with a hand saw.

A perfect gift for the children of parents you hate.
One of the most satisfying things I've ever made ! I know it sounds silly but when you finally get all four tones working it's great. my nephew is gonna love this too, thanks a lot Steve, this was great boredom BUSTER !!!
You have way too much fun making things :)
Dear Steve,
Thanks for this awesome video. I saw someone use this today as a classroom management tool. They are not easy to come by where I live, but with your tutorial, I used my hand tools and had one made up this afternoon. Such fun! Thank you for the plans and the detail you put into your video. Cheers
Дядька, ты молодец! Супер 😊🙏
wow awesome. I'm a carpenter and I'm going to make this for my son. he will love it. greetings from the Netherlands!
hollaaand!
Hi Steve! I just made this for my 4 year old son! He loved it. I took 4 hours though, but he stayed with me the whole time, super keen to hear the chuuu-chuuu!!! Thank you so much for uploading this video, and better yet, making available the PDF file.
Cheers from Groote Eylandt - Australia.

Is this for hunting trains? when is open season? lol
Only steam trains though.
And season is only open during the Steam summer sale.
No NameGiven 🗣😹
Such a boring joke not funny
That would be cool to see a fancy version!
Santa made one of these for my 3 year old son. It was by far his favorite thing. Thanks for another great project!
You are so incredibly talented. Amazing. You are an asset to the world. Thanks for sharing your talents.
I literally rewinded the "All aboard the Woodworking Train" part !! You know how to make it lively !
Thanks, Steve! Following your instructions, I made a Train whistle and a simple thumb-sized whistle for my grandson from scrap wood in my garage, and they both work great 👍. I'll be checking out your other postings.
Hey there Steve,
I just wanted to say, keep up with the great videos. Me and my other class mates have enjoyed your videos in my middle schools woodwork shop. Our teacher, Mr.Steinbaugh has shown at the beginning of every class with one of your videos for about the past month. I cant wait to see your Christmas special video.
Love this guy. Great ideas and so fun to watch.
hes like your crazy uncle...in a good way just gotta love him. my crazy uncle is in trains so hes getting a home made whistle this year thanks steve.
What a great little project, bet the kids love these whistles.
Super cool. I'm going to make several of these for my grand kids to drive their parents crazy. You know, like they did me when they were kids. LOL. Thanks for sharing and the plans.
You're right! I just need to hook up a motor to these.
I had no idea they were as complex as they are. I guess I took the simple train whistle for granted. All joking aside, great project. Thanks Steve.
There is no day where I regret following this channel, a lot of ideas, thanks for all Steve!
This has to be one of the most fun projects I've watched in a long time. Thanks, Steve.
... but it seems a bit dangerous. What if a youngster blows the whistle causing someone to jump in an effort to get away from the train, hits the counter, knocks off a slice of bread which lands on the floor, peanut butter side down. If the person cleaning up the stuck bread is allergic to peanuts, they could easily break out in hives.
Fantástic from Spain !!!👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks a lot Steve! It's our 'diner is served' sign for the kids. A lot of fun to make with my youngest son as well. Greetings from The Netherlands! Remco
I remember the last couple of days in school I made one in the wood shop. It was a single tone one that was obnoxiously loud. Everyone hated me that day lol. Still have to make the 4 tome one eventually :D
Great project! I'm going to take these up in the woodworking class I teach. Thanks!
Awesome video. Just wish there would have been a warning that kids may want this and want them now. Lol
Love your updated version. You came a long way in 9 years!
Leave it to Sir Ramsey to simplify what others make difficult!
You are so worth watching Steve.. You never fail to make me smile. Keep up the great work mate.. TOOT TOOOOOT!!!!
What a simple and beautiful project for children. Kudos to you!
great piece, to keep the grand child amused for hours (with our ear plugs on)
man I can watch the beginning of this video over and over, it never ceases to crack me up haha!
Made a bunch of these for my nieces, nephews and cousins. Great project!!!
Excellent stocking stuffers for the grand kids!
Thanks
Loved this project made 4 as gifts for some kids on my list
You should make one that has the little pull handle that enables the sound of the whistle to go up and down
nice! my daughter already has one and loves it, but I'm thinking I could really annoy my brothers and sisters by making a bunch of these and giving them to my nieces and nephews!!
fantastic! I always wondered how to make a whistle and you teach me how to make four!!!! wow!!!
Great whistles. Especially the last little one.
Totally awesome, Steve. I am doing it for a construction project in class. Thanks for showing me how to make one so easily. If I get an A, It will be AWESOME!!!
I was playing with some tools when I found your video. Thank you Steve
Another great project.
Wonderful to watch this.
Fun! I think I'll make these for my grand kids. Thanks for sharing!
Looks like a nice extra xmas present for the kids, think I`ll make one as well!
That is easily the best intro you've ever done LEGEND!!!!!!! Gonna make one for my son for Xmas
My god. .. This one took me waaaay back...
LOVED IT!!!
How about a how too, with the food color dying process.
Prepping of the wood, and mixing the stain...
Thanx Steve...love the videos
Great fun! Just in time for the grandkids stockings!
Great job mate love your sense of humor
I still have one of these from train day
This video just saved Christmas!
great thanks to you im going to make several for all the neighborhood kids!
that will show all the parent who complain about my shop!
i dont have access to these kind of tools, but i feel like i need to subscribe....
Another winner Steve, I have had one of those whistles, (commercially made,) for years, and always wondered how they made them. Thanks for enlightening me.
Great fun stuff!
Love it! Got two boys ... means I got two of these to build! Thanks for sharing!
what's the matter Steve couldn't hold in your laughter anymore lol
Fun project Steve.
like like like!!!! you two have to take a video working on somethink together.... carl will turn and steve will work with his glue and tools :D :D
Preloading: Liked video.
First 5 seconds: I'm already cracking up.
Well done, Steve.
Very good!
Cool, Ill have to give that a try.
Thx I'm a Teacher for Woodworking in Germany (Bavaria) i will build this with my Kids.
Toot Toot! Fun project, I'll have to give it a try. I hadn't seen these for awhile.
I can back just to watch that intro. So much fun.

OOOHHH my iner child is coming out with this!
I love your videos!
That's great ! Really sounds like a train :)
(sorry if bad English :))
Another video on the net demonstrated turning the whistle on a lathe, before drilling the sound holes. I'm thinking, build the whistle first, and then turn it down to something less square. It's held together with glue, so it's not going to come apart on the lathe
A simple job, but fun, thanks for sharing.
now THIS is quality youtube content! thanks for the interesting video
I'll make one next week Levi,
It's well worth a try . Could be dressed up many different ways.
Hmmm....
Gracias Sr Steve he visto varios videos y me han parecido muy interesantes lo mslo es que no hablo ingles y me cuesta trabajo entenderle pero lo felicito pues se que voy a aprender bastante de usted por su atencion gracias
Love it Steve! Can't wait till my Nephew comes by & we'll make one.
Looking forward to the christmas-special!
It's fun watching you try to restrain laughter. The rest is good too.
Very nice. Thanks
i wish i had the tools you do, my backup drill got knocked off the bench last week and broke and my main drill was stolen from my car, i have a jig saw and rip circular saw. bah i wish i had even the basics to make the stuff you make. until i can afford tools il watch your videos and dream. keep up the good work and congrats on your sponsorship
My father taught me how to make the small fluit of a branch from a willow tree in the spring when the tree is filled with sap.
Now attach an air hose fitting and a variable air valve to simulate the louder sound of the old steam engine locomotives
Excelente , gracias Steve saludos desde Argentina . Great Proyect !!!
Wow, super easy! Think I will make one for my bike.
I would like it really deep so I may try 3/4 in. holes or perhaps just deeper, hmmm.
Thanks Steve
good lord Steve I'm glad I found your channel thanks for your sharing your woodcraft expertise. Possible to make a how to make sliding doors like closets and stuff would be nice. Thanks again very educational channel.
Great little project Steve, I think I'll try one but turn it on the lathe.
Take care,
Carl
I wounder how it would sound with three holes. I think it would turn better with three holes.
Loved it! Keep those simple projects coming. And stay safe.
jajajaja I saw an Ed Edd & Eddy character at 2:10 jajajajaja nice job Steve!
I remember these. Memories.....
I’m tempted to make custom whistles that are based off actual whistle on actual steam engines. I’ll likely use spruce for it because I don’t want it to sound tinny I want it more resonant.
holy shit the memories! I remember these as a kid
Steve, you never cease to entertain me. keep up the great videos man!
unnecessary miter-saw cut, love it
Love your videos, you seem to have a lot of fun making them and that makes them fun to watch! Keep up the great work Steve!
Easy and funny. Thanks from Spain!
Nice job! I wonder if different wood types would have differing sounds? As an aside, I'm currently drinking a Celebration Ale per your recommendation. Not bad at all!
Thank you!
Nice one!
MacGyver makes it from a toenail and a crocodile tooth.
Love the whistle going to try it for my kids.
