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

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

... 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?
