One to One Pipe Making Courses

Pipe making courses can be from one day up to six months, for a single item such as a set of bellows to multiples of chanters in all pitches, from a practice set to a full set of pipes.

Hand rolling ferrules, Hand forged keys, reed making, we cater for all stages, each course can be split into weeks or months and carry on again later if any breaks are needed, we also show those with their own timber, how to select, season and prepare it for your own use.

We would like to point out that our courses are not an apprenticeship but could be just the start that someone needs to get them going, books and pamphlets is one way to start, but hands on experience is where one learns the best.

If you are of a practical nature, already have a skill such as cabinet making, joinery and turning any other hands on skill are and you interested in a pipe making course, you are most welcome to join Davy in his workshop with a unique one to one course, where you can learn all parts of pipe manufacture as done by the makers of old.

One day courses are designed for the beginner in getting his or her first student or starter chanter in any pitch. Weekly courses are for making a practice set, hand stitched bellows and hand rolled ferrules are included on all courses.

Monthly and above are for making half and full sets in any pitch. We also offer chanter making as a speciality in all pitches.
