The Bagpipe Place is an important resource for pipers around the world. Simply put, there's nothing else like it.... anywhere! www.thebagpipeplace.com
And just like that winter came to say “goodbye”! More snow expected a bit later.

A friend recently tipped me off to a bagpipe on Ebay Australia. I contacted the seller to express my interest. He responded by making a gift of the bagpipe to me. I paid the shipping.
The bagpipe arrived in good time and I couldn't wait to dive into the project. I stripped and oiled the bagpipe. Interesting that the blackening agent was purple! I'll have Rick at Dunbar Bagpipes install matching rings, which were replaced with Jacaranda wood by a previous owner. I'll do a full write-up in The Bagpipe Museum soon however I thought I'd get these pictures out this morning.
I've learned that William (Bill) Steele purchased the business from Martin ca 1970. He closed the business a short time later and disposed of all of Martin's tools. I'm seeking more information, so if anybody out there can help, please email or PM me. Ringo
