Very interesting set of affordable small pipes. I followed his link for instructions on how to make a set but they didn't address reeds or how to properly drill the chanter to get the right notes. I guess they are assuming you're already a piper?
Very cool project.

Nathan, it uses cling film type plastic as a membrane (think of a kazzoo) instead of reeds.
I was thinking about making a set for myself to record with since I usually only do overdubs with my chanter anyway.
I was thinking of using my practice chanter.
As a fellow musician, I think that you can agree, it's not the instrument. It's the player.
;-)
With that said, my piping shall stay confined to Logic Pro and Pro Tools. Haha.

Pics or it didn't happen! Lol.
