learn to make uilleann pipes (read all 4 entries…)
First set of pipes 3 years ago

I bought a set of Scottish smallpipes for cheap (from Pakistan) on eBay. They are mouth-blown so I’ll be making a set of bellows to hook up to them. I guess I’ll just replace all the pieces one by one until I have a working set of uilleann pipes. I re-did all the joint wrappings last night so they’re actually air-tight now. My chanter seems to be out of tune (which is pretty much par for the course with this cheap-o “brand” of pipes) but my drones seem to be OK.
