I make uilleann pipes chanter and regulator reeds since 2008.

Even if cane (Arundo Donax) is my favourite material to work with, I can use Ayous wood (Triplochiton scleroxylon) which offers even more stability in extreme climate situations.

During the years I had the opportunity to work on instruments by many different pipemakers, here a partial list:

Aebi, Arpa, Bicego, Bresciani, Burton, Childress, Curran, Daye, De Keyzer, Du Ve, Faden, Froment, Gallager, Galloway, Heuline, Howard, Kwisthout, Lambe, Lawrence, Mallory-Pogam, Morandini, Morrison, Nakatsui, O’Briain, O’Hagan, Olivier, Patkos, Quinn, Roberts, Rogge, Rowesome, Seery, Sloan, Thompson, Van Daal, Vickers, Vignoles, Whitmer, Williams, Woof.
