Hi PJ

This one on Adjusting aperture of smallpipe chanter reed by Richard Evans any good to you?

Does it sound better now?

Hi David,

That’s more along the lines of what I’m talking about. I still think it would be good to have something specific for uilleann pipe chanter reeds. The bridles are different. Dimentions are different. etc.
