I'm talking about those ocarinas such the one that appears in "Zelda:
Ocarina of Time". I've found a lot of them made of ceramic, some ones
made of plastic, but never found anywhere one made of wood. Could
somebody tell me if they exist and, if so, where could I obtain one
(preferredly via internet)?

If you need a photo, here you'll see the exactly type of ocarina I
mean (it is made of ceramic, of course, not of wood):

Dear Dargerok,

I'm pleased the information provided will help you get your wood sweet
potato ocarina at Hind Musical Instruments.

You don't have to do anything to pay me. Researchers receive the
payment as soon as the answer is posted in the answer box.

Best wishes,
Bobbie7

Some nice wood sweet potato ocarinas were available at Hind Musical Instruments.
http://www.hindocarina.com/sweet_potato.htm
Unfortunately as of June, 2005, these wooden sweet potatoes are no
longer available.

Here is a link on "How to Make a Wooden Sweet Potato"

by the way, I've checked the webpage and it is EXACTLY what I was
looking for. But I just have no time to make one myself... they aren't
selling them anymore?

They state that they aren't available as of June 2005.  Why don't you
write and ask if they have any left.

I'll do... hope they got one... but thanks anyway. I dont know if that
was an answer, should I pay you the 3$? Or can I wait cause maybe
somebody knows where to obtain the ocarinas? It's my first time asking
in Google Answers so I don't really know how that works.

You have 30 days until this question expires. I would suggest that you
wait. Another researcher may be able to find the ocarina you want.

Best wishes,

Bobbie: I've talked with Charles Hind. He says he's going to make
sweet potato ocarines again in 2006!!! Thank you, really. What I have
to do to pay you the 3 euros?
