Photos of your collection!

Thin Weasel A in rosewood
Bernard Overton Low D

Susato Bb with black electrical tape around the base of the head to repair a crack.

Waltons Guinness
2 Coopermans(I guess..they're unlabeled)
Generation D tube with Feadog head
Feadog D tube with self tweaked Gen red head
James Galway whistle(also presumeably made by Generation)

My tattoo artist will appreciate the comment. I'm getting some more work done on it in 2 weeks. When I finally get it finished I'm going to start on a Celtic music piece with a tin whistle as the main image!straycat82 wrote:RE: the ink-- That's some nice clean line work, not my choice of subject matter but very well done.

From top to bottom:
Dizi in C# by Marwan Hassan
Tipple Bnat flute in gray PVC with deco foil rings
Chieftain Old Style low D whistle (I guess it's 7-8 years old)
D flute, plumwood, brass and articifial ivory, made by me
Maurice Reviol D flute, muirapiranga and silver
Phil Bleazey high D whistle in blackwood and silver
various whistles, the Bb Gen and C/D Sweetones are tweaked by me.
The bamboo whistle plays just between Bb and A and has a very quiet and mellow tone. Good for practise. Also tweaked by me.
I almost exclusively use the Bleazey whistle and the Reviol flute in session. I also use the tweaked Sweetones and the Bb Gen quite alot. The other whistles are seldom played. But it's nice to have them.

Yeah i think in that photo the two howards are were just about to start cracking so i taped them up just for a little more protection, should really replace the heads but thay are the older model and i rarely play them anymore so i couldn't bother at the moment. all the woods are taped because of cracks and the white non tuneable susato is also cracked.
