While not new at making pipes, Michael Hubbert has started full-time at the craft. He presently makes a D set, copied from Crowley of Cork. Michael O’Donovan plays a lovely boxwood set by Michael. He lives in Boonville, CA and has email at: shop@michaelhubbertmusic.com .
I have no connection with his business and am supplying this info. to expand the knowledge of this maker to the piping community. His waiting list is quite short, at present.
I think the www is the confusing part. I’ve tried to disable the HTML codes in this message (without any luck) but It looks as if he has registered his domain name and just hasn’t gotten around to setting up the website.
If he’s the site administrator and personalized mailboxes haven’t been established then it’s probable any mail sent to that domain name would get delivered.
You are probably correct. hubberts@mcn.org will work, that is family email. He said he is just setting up a domain name, and has not used it for email yet. He is usually available by phone if he is around. A marvelous craftsman, he is just getting into flat pitch narrow-bores as well. I’ll try to email him.
