That is AWESOME!! As a competitive bagpipe player myself, I had to click on this thread. Nice movement on the fingers (not that anyone will notice) and the tune "Going Home" is a traditional funeral song as well. Absolutely love this!

unscrew the wrist and elbow of the Costco pose n stay
I cut the fingers where they join the hand and glued plastic hinges from hand to fingers. model shop carries the hinges, hot glue gun works best.
crank shaft below drops down into pvc pipe and I use three wooden balls to keep it tight inside.
servo on top connects to the crank shaft with a rod attachment I got at servo city.
drill small holes into the fingers so they line up with the crank. drop a long screw to connect to the shaft.
a notch on the pvc to hold the servo and hot glue to seal the servo in place.
reposition the elbows so the line up and use large screws to keep it tight.
I used VSA to control movements.

He is fantastic!
I love the crank shaft notion....I never even considered doing something like that!
I'm curious if there are any other skeletal musicians on the forum. Maybe your piper, and my violinist can scare up some friends, and make some beautiful music together.
