Danny, Your pipes are the Dogs Knackers Mate!
Don't know when I will get my set from Dave. Probably in quite a few years time :cry:

Danny you got yourself a real death and destruction machine! "Enough of this poncy O'Carolan crap, time for some PIPING!" :twisted:

Cool looking set of pipes, I bet they're fun to play, too.

Speaking of nice looking pipes, did Harry ever post who made the gorgeous bass reg cap depicted in his avatar?

Curious mind want to know :D

... I didn't. It's a bellows valve. Still waiting on the first correct answer. The offer of a full set in chocolate, swiss roll and Caramac wrapper as first prize still stands.

It's a bellows intake? Holy (fill in the blank)!

D'Arcy says he knows, be he's not talking (which is highly unusual for him). Just to get the ball rolling, I guess it's Alain Froment.

It looks like the meerchaum pipes I used to sell at Tinder Box years back! LOL Can you smoke out of it too? Does it turn a nice honey brown color after years of your favorite Cavendish or Burley? :)

Probably a dumb question, but... Danny, are your pipes any heavier than, say, a set made with nickel-silver or brass?
