Hey people,

Just wondering how many people are going to the Dublin, Leinster and All-Ireland fleadhs this year....

Im hoping to be sellin my new tippers at all of these, plus the WBCs and Craiceann!

Also would like to know if anyone is entering bodhran competitions anywhere.

Well Cillian,
What sort of tippers do you make? Woods etc??
Seanie.

Hey Seanie,

Well I have it all down in the 'Makin yer own tippers' thread..

Mostly its Hotrods -
BBQ skewer rods in sizes 7,14,19
Dowel/Skewer combo 3 of each
Dowel rods in size 3 (with extra long rubber grip)

Some Single Dowels with cuts about 1/3 of the way in

Fiddlebows in varying sizes, weights and some with cuts.

Also a few sticks I turn myself from shovel/brush handles or blocks. These are completely custom and I have never made the same one twice.

Thats about it really. Im thinkin of buying in a block or two of ebony and turnin a few tippers from it..

Ill post some pics of my sticks later.

Cillian.
