It was a great month for learning new things. I had a couple of different bagpipes in the workshop for repair and I completed some important projects as well. The photo below is from about a week ago and since then I’ve just about finished the two bagpipes pictured. I’ll upload the new pictures soon but for the last week I’ve had a work table covered in various bagpipe parts.

In this picture:

-finished blackwood drones for a friend in Arkansas

-silver ferrules

-brass ferrules

-wood finishing experimental samples

-a rubber mold for making tin frogs (A.D.D.)

-a stand of sycamore drones for an 18th century inspired project

-two tin soles and bulbs for Highland chanters

Later I’ll take pictures of the completed pipes. It snowed all day yesterday so the light is going to be great when the sun rises.
