Custom bagpipe chanter reed protector

[416 Rigby]

I've been playing on a old wood lathe that my boss gave to me. It's been a blast turning keychains, razor sets, and other small items. I made some pipe chanter caps for my teacher and a couple of my friends. I think they're pretty cool. First one is maple burl for my teacher:

These are spalted maple:

I'm going to make one for myself from black and white ebony.

Something different that you don't see every day. This is fun stuff.
