I’ve got an old Pipeworks of Boston chanter that I’m interested in reeding up. I don’t have an old reed to look at, so wondering if anyone has any numbers to start with for this?
I know it’s based on an older good Quinn chanter if that helps…
Also, any ideas for contacting the original makers?
Hi!
You can find Patrick Murray’s numbers on Evertjan’s old website

You would do fine with what is generally followed for a Rowesome style reed, and substitute with a tubing staple.
Thanks guys! I’ll see what I come up with…
So on that website the numbers for the tubing staple talk about 5 mm outside diameter .02 inches inside diameter. I’m just gonna ignore the inside diameter number… should I assume that that tubing is probably 3/16" hobby tubing?.
