    These pipes would definitely not work today. Which way would the water trap tube go?

    Well , I'm certainly not " abreast " of this style of pipes . However , they would probably go quite well with the " twin " sporran .

    Yes that strange double bagpipe with unique bi-lobe bag is something of a mystery.

    Loads of bagpipes show up in illuminated manuscripts etc and they mostly seem to be fairly accurate depictions of things people actually played.

    But what about this twin thing? Did anything like that exist? If so, how was the bag made? It's a far more complicated shape than bagpipe bags usually are.
