Uilleann Pipes
NOTICE
Effective November 2019 I have stopped taking general orders to make bagpipes.
There are a couple exceptions to this:
1) If you own pipes or pipe parts I have made I am willing to do repairs as necessary, or to make additional parts to fill out a set, as with adding regulators, keys, etc.
2) The odd project that interests me.
Other Things:
My Tunes
Make an E Whistle

The Coffeepot
At least one vaudeville-era piper played this "clown instrument," a pennywhistle tucked inside what looked like an old-fashioned coffeepot.
