<<The knob on the end of the center column is a cover for another 1/4-20 
threaded stud, so head or body may be attached on either top or end of the 
tube. The molded loop for strap attachment keeps it from going any lower. That 
and the thickness of the <<<end piece means one can't get as low as one might 
expect.

<<<There are several other ways to get to ground level.........

Thanks for superb discussion with illustrations on how the bagpipes work and 
alternatives.  The extra joint is very useful.  I like it, though it is quirky. 
 Good for ground level locally at least.

On the agenda, Mike
