Funny how one hobby drives another out! I've taken up building musical instruments (from kits, due to lack of carpentry skills and tools), and have just finished a great bass Rackett (WOW, what a sound!). I like it so much I'm going to make a matched set (great bass / bass / tenor); and while it takes time that would otherwise be spent tweaking a language, at least it provides an opportunity to make some new words for things that would otherwise have no words. In this case, ill pommers (rackett) so called because of the pummelling sound; and y phib mor (the Dumnonian great pipes) with two chanters and no dronepipe.
