Also have played Bagpipes Solo as well as in Pipe Bands I played Drums in a Garage band in High School, probably my Instrument I played the best!

FWIW, Dave C is himself moving reasonably fast on these. Very good fellow to work with.

Re: WTB: Copley Flute
I ordered a delrin Copley (3-piece, w/rings, w/o slide) in mid-October 2021, and got it the first week of January (2022), but the turn around time could be even shorter now, considering my order stretched over the holidays. I've had the 3-piece blackwood Copley in the past, and both models are winners in my book.

Re: WTB: Copley Flute
Dave Copley posted on FB the end of Nov 2020 that they had a C flute in stock. I contacted him, but he'd sold it in the day it took me to decide... So Aaron Copley made a new one for me. I got it a week after ordering it. It took him ~3 days to make and the rest was shipping time.
The great thing about Delrin is that you don't need to let the pieces rest like you would with wood, so you should be able to get a flute pretty fast.
