“Jim, re-read the name. Geoff Wooff has some name as an uilleann pipemaker The C flute was based on a Rudall and Rose owned by [as far as I remember] Seamus McMahon of Ennis, scaled down to C. Worked a treat. geoff doesn’t do flutes these days I think, he made a few Cs and I remember a Bflat flute for Ronan Browne.”

Seamus McMahon? Is he the policeman from Ennis who plays the fiddle as well? SADDAM’S SOSIA! :boggle:
Foolishness apart, a friend of mine from Dublin owns a Woofe Bb flute
that is a joy to play. Geoff Woofe knows perfectly how to make a nice sounding flute.
