Installation of Sheepskin Pipe Bag

Installation of Traditional Sheepskin Pipe Bag

We can professionally tie-in and season your sheepskin pipe bag. Many pipers are interested in trying this classic pipe bag, but are understandably intimidated by the installation. It is a time-consuming process, and mistakes can make the bag unusable. For this service we don't need your entire bagpipe, just the 5 stocks. We'll remove your old bag, cut holes, tie-on the hide bag you supply or purchase, season with Airtight, and test for airtightness. Unless you have specific requests for hole placement, we'll use the long-accepted measurements outlined in Captain John MacLellan's handbook.

Installation Includes:

• Removal of previous pipe bag
• Return of previous pipe bag, unless disposal is requested (Some bags, especially hide bags, will not be reusable)
• Cutting of holes
• Tie-in of replacement pipe bag
• Seasoning with Hardie's Airtight
• Test for airtightness

There is a $25 surcharge for the installation of sheepskin bags not purchased at Henderson's.
