I was working on this myself Andrew. There is a help topic in the FAQ about this. The basic jist is that you need to float it on the web somewhere and link it to this page
????? I fear I am a bit of a Luddite at heart and it all went a bit over my head. Would be great to see the picture though!

No, It simply has a circular clamp with a screw(missing) opposite your mouth,when it was attached to the flute, to allow the gizmo to securely grip the flute head when in use.

I am slowly getting her back into playing condition after many years gathering dust in a cupboard. She will never be a 'tune cannon' but plays very sweetly and easily.
Absolutely right. It is not a large holed flute, and therefore does play easily; I wouldn't have described Jacks tone as sweet, but that's Jack and not the flute.

He told me that it suits his "pointy little fingers".
What a happy coincidence, I also could be accused of having pointy little fingers!
