Abstract

A project focused in the documentation and producing 3D models of bagpipes from the musical instrument collection of the University of Edinburgh yielded an unexpected yet interesting biproduct. This paper will explore an innovative approach to employing 3D printed components to restore functionality to historic bagpipes without interventive treatments.
