I had a great commission come through that I can finally share: a pair of flasks for Keith and Brendan of the Young Dubliners! Being a fan of this band, I was excited to make these for them.

LOL! I’m learning those (still in the chanter stage though). I may have to get a Blair Digital pipe so my wife stops giving me that look

I don’t have the lung power, but man, it gets my blood stirring…
That happens to me when I see lady pipers…my mind goes to what a true scotsman wears under his kilt and wanders off wondering what a real scotswoman wears 
Seriously, it was the fingering that has been hardest so far - I kept (keep) curling my fingers trying to close off the holes using my fingertips instead of keeping my fingers flat. And I never played anything like a clarinet or something that used fingertip control.

I had the same problem when I first started playing bass guitar…wanted to use my fingertips instead of barring with my fingers.
My Daddy was a jazz musician, and blew a Selmer tenor.
It must be in the blood, because if he had lived - a Sax would be my bone. That sound grabs me. That guy on Saturday Night Live? One of the best there is.
