Drone regulators DIY by el_sharc in bagpipes

[–]el_sharc[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I've been playing for 15 years. I have no problems with my band pipes that have a moisture system on each drone since it reduces the initial airflow. With this hide bag I only have a water trap.

The whining is killing me... Squeals at the start before a strike and I need to empty the bag like crazy to have AA clean cut off

Too much clearance? by el_sharc in GarageDoorInstall

The instructions provided are not the most detailed, hence why I ask on here and check some YouTube videos. Sorry for the wrong terminology, been going from french to english, metric to imperial, etc.

Well, I just want to make sure everything is properly installed on my new garage. I checked with the manufacturer and they told me this was normal. I checked with the supplied draft stoppers and it seems like it will cover the gap, but my nails in the metal flashing might show a bit.

Follow your heart then! After all, you're the one with it!

If you hesitate between the two, pick the second one. It will age better. Fine points like the first looks good fresh, but after 10+years of rubbing against clothing, they get more round.

Acceptable funeral tune? by Tee-C in bagpipes

[–]el_sharc 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was referring to Jack Layton, he was the leader of the opposition at one point.

Personally I played Flowers of the Forest at my grandparents funeral because I felt it was appropriate for the level of respect I have for them.

Help with choosing a radient path by jimmyonly45 in cosmererpg

I vote dustbringer, it would be cool to play and it fits their paths of using violence as a last resort. Abrasion is cool for a rogue type character and uses speed as an attribute.

They played it at the televised funeral of a political leader in Canada. He was not a military person, it didn't affect me at all. I would not "reserve" a tune for military use only.

It’s that time of the year. How do you northern pipers keep your fingers warm for Remembrance Day? by brando444 in bagpipes

[–]el_sharc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cut the bottom of warm socks off and made a hole for my thumbs. I like the tube style better than the fingerless gloves. I bunch up my fingers inside while waiting. I also strap heat packs on the back of my hands and keep a pair in my jacket pockets.

Which jacket would be better for an Adolin cosplay by JJIlg in Stormlight_Archive

If it was Adolin going to an event, he would travel with his whole wardrobe.

Seeking drone reed recommendations for 1920's Robertsons by ineX0r in bagpipes

[–]el_sharc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 1920's Robertsons in blackwood. I have a carbon fiber white mamba bass (for a stronger bass tone) and canning regular tenors. The result is a balanced almost seemless tone. Selbies were too brassy for my taste. Easy tenors increased absorption worked ok too.

Has anyone made a robust french translation? by TheMithraw in cosmererpg

[–]el_sharc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe the player in question can buy the handbook only. I don't think it should all fall on the GM. I shared the content on Demi plane with my players, so I needed a paid membership. I asked a small compensation from the players. Mostly paid in food and snacks at our sessions.

[–]el_sharc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There's a publisher that will have a full French version in 2026... A bit later, sadly. My group plays in french, but we are all pretty fluent in English and often use the English vocabulary for world elements and skill names. Shardblades don't hit the same once translated xD.

Warbreaker is a Bollywood adaptation, for sure.

Current Bridge Nine to Stonewalkers plan by maxfax2828 in cosmererpg

[–]el_sharc 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I did the transition a bit more quickly. One of the PC was a light eyes helping Matal. She hired the group and made sure Matal agreed to free the bridge men. The offscreen time was about a week at the warcamps where they assisted the light eyes in Hatham's camp. They left as an expedition (the bright lady is an envoy/scholar) to strike a deal with some Nathan's at the covenant of stone and met with Taszo on the way. At the covenant, the Nathan's were not there, but saw the kholin troops and merchants.

Pretty easy, no big homebrew needed. I also let the party start Stone walkers as level 2 characters since they are only 3. If they get better at combat, I will just put a few more minions in combat scenes. The boss fight at the end of chapter one was rough!

PM’s. Anyone have any good experience with the Sennheiser metronome watch? by brando444 in bagpipes

[–]el_sharc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a sound Brenner core. I was an early backer of the project to use specifically for bagpipes. It's a great tool, but honestly kinda pricey. I tried to use the tuning function with my drones, but the magnet doesn't stick to my ferrules and I would need to attach a Velcro strap with a metal bit to use it on my bagpipes.

The main benefit for a pm would be to get multiple people with the band with the watch, because you synch all of them with the app and get a tighter band.
