I would certainly interested in this discussion, have kept mine in a sax gig bag for years now with the chanter and drones inside plastic tubes (wrapped in old scarves) this has been the most portable and enduring bag, however after 13 years or so it is beginning to disintegrate. However I would like to find a gig bag type construction that is perhaps a more regular shape. s

Before the set I've just finished I'd not a made a full set for some time, having mainly done just chanters, and before that I'd had several cases in stock, and now I find that the people I used to get cases from don't seem to be in business any more. Graham Spencer of "Savage and Hoy" used to do them for me, and I believe a couple of other pipe-makers. However, although he still has a webpage up, there's no reply to emails and the telephone numbers I have don't work. Does anyone have any information and/or opinions and help in sourcing good cases for NSP? Preferably within UK of course.
