Hi Albert,

to post a link, simply copy the address as it appears in the address bar of your browser by -

*click in address bar and highlight the full address

  • with address highlighted, press ctrl + c (copy)

  • then in your message field to C&F click to set the cursor and then paste the address by pressing ctrl + v (paste)

  • then highlight that address in message field and above the message field click on the box that says URL

That should do it.

That chanter looks very familiar. I think I might have seen it on eBay within the past 6 months.

http://chiffboard.mati.ca/viewtopic.php?t=23407 Albert, read this, it’ll help a ton.

or just read my post above :smiley:

… or simply use the link I provided. :stuck_out_tongue:

My one’s better than your one :stuck_out_tongue:

Is too…

sorry Joseph, couldn’t help but get in a response first :smiley:

No need for the URL bit
Just copy and paste, the board makes the when it encounters a url.

Which makes my way the easiest ;p

The only thing the URL thingie is good for is this:
The game i spend too much time on
With copy/paste it’d just look like this:

wait for PJ… That’s even easier :laughing: :boggle: :smiley: :laughing:

maw - I don’t check ebay.co.uk. I check ebay.com one per day or so. If an auction is only open to UK bidders, it won’t appear on eBay.com and I won’t post it here.

Who might be the maker?

:swear: :swear: :swear:

Foiled again :tomato:

As previously mentioned, I’ve seen this chanter on ebay in the recent past. I could be wrong but the name Reid (not Sean) came into my head when I saw it. There might have been some discussion that one of the English pipermakers made the chanter.

If they are by Reid then chances are they are quite old. Reid was known for Northumbrian Smallpipes of the highest caliber.,

From my recollection of the discussion about the previous sale, there was more than one pipermaker called Reid.

Staring at it very hard, is it not Mark Hillman’s work? Look at the bellows in particular, the shape of the hinge plates, the style of the chanter keys, the fact it’s boxwood, the fact a practice set of his was on ebay in the YK a few months ago?

Could be wrong, like…
