    Congratulations once again!! Always did like the sound of a bagpipe!! Out of curiosity, why the bagpiper, heritage, common in the area, relative that would do it cheap, etc. Just curious, but I do love I the idea!

      Thanks all.

      Not a drop of Scotch in me except from the bottle. Maggie and I just both like the pipes and wanted to do something to get the blood pumping in some of the residents here.
      A bit of trivia: This is the first wedding in the 20 year history of this apartment complex.

      No problem with shop time, she is already encouraging me to buy more tools and enjoyed her first trip to Rockler, Woodcraft is next.

      I got a winner!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

        Sounds like a keeper to me, I can see why you tied the knot (I guess her looks didn't hurt either if I may be so blunt).

        Congratulations!

          Congrats to the young lad and lass and wishiing you two "Guid Luck".

          I was going to ask about the "pipes" as I listen to them almost daily in my shop, but you covered the answer with your post to Ric..

                      Congratulations!!
                      Best wishes to you both!!
                      Nobody is gonna hit as hard as life. But it ain't how hard you hit; it's about how hard you can get hit, and keep moving forward. How much you can take, and keep moving forward. That's how winning is done. Now, if you know what you're worth, then go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hit, and not pointing fingers saying you ain't where you are because of him, or her, or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that! -Rocky Balboa-

                        Congratulations!

                        You guys look mahvelous. Not to rain on the solemnity of the occasion, but I couldn't resist throwing in a few bagpipe jokes:


                        Q. What's the definition of a gentleman?

                        A. Someone who knows how to play the bagpipe and doesn't.


                        Q. How can you tell if a bagpipe is out of tune?

                        A. Someone is blowing into it.


                        Bagpipes-(noun)-I understand the inventor of the bagpipes was inspired when he saw a man carrying an indignant, asthmatic pig under his arm. Unfortunately, the man-made object never equalled the purity of sound achieved by the pig.

                        -Alfred Hitchcock


                        And a kilt joke:


                        "WHAT'S WORN UNDER YOUR KILT?"

                        Nothing is worn, everything is in perfect working order.
                        Jeff


                        “Doctors are men who prescribe medicines of which they know little, to cure diseases of which they know less, in human beings of whom they know nothing”--Voltaire

                          You always have been a class act, Dick. Great photos, great turnings, a great wedding and now, the best from my perspective, a great lady who shares a great love. (Man, I'm gettin' all misty.)

                          God bless you folks and may you have many happy years together!!!
                          Blessings,
