The dsecription said that the chanter stocks on the bags had different sized holes, hence the different windcaps.

it is easy , just put a bag under each arm and use your foot to pump the bellows . Some simple plumbing hardware will connect the two chanter tops , and off you go . You will be pumped like " arnie " in no time . Just like a home gym .

Whoops! I was only drinking so I could play the pipes more fluidly, not so I could do the internet. Why else would anyone encase the ebay link in [img]? :-? Thanks for posting the right one, Kev.

Reserve is met at $1600 USD, 4 bids. that's a damn good price with two bags. Roberts drones are strong.
