Pipers: Need to manipulate your pipe chanter reed? – use a pen knife or Xacto knife instead of sandpaper. You have much more control on the amount of cane you take off with a knife vs. sandpaper. And it is much better for the cane itself; other woodworkers call this technique “feathering.”

Should piping/drumming/pipe band associations waive 2021 dues and carry forward your 2020 payment?

  • Yes, I think that's fair.
  • I think so, but I'm also willing to pay again to help sustain the association.
  • No, we should pay dues every year no matter what.
