It looks a lot like black walnut. It's real purdy, ain't it? Now I want one.

It is spring here at the moment, so you see the daffodils blooming.

Tell us something.: I am interested in the uilleann pipes and their typical -and broader- use. I have been composing and arranging for the instrument lately. I enjoy unusual harmonic combinations on the pipes. I use the pipes to play music of other cultures.

Antaine's Pipes

Post by gil and julie »

Antaine,

With regard to your January 18th posting, in which you state "all the artwork is my own", could you be more specific about your definition of "my own"? I seem to recall that in October of this past year, you posted information about lifting designs from the engraved Lynch set and then applying them to your own.

Is this what you mean by the artwork being your own? In the pictures of the regulators and drones in your recent postings the designs on the brass parts are identical to those on the engraved Lynch set, which just happens to be mine. I don't mind terribly that you pirated my work for your own use, however I take offense to the claim that the artwork is all your own. I spent many hours working out the design for each specific part; they were not taken from a website or a Dover book, but are my own creations and adaptations of existing motifs.

Perhaps you should clarify this for all readers of this forum, and give proper attribution where it is due.
