Winter has been raging around us here is Scotland and we’ve been buried deep in the engine room at MK HQ looking over the production processes we use to make the whistles.  Whether it be another file stroke here or there, cutting out unnecessary work, or micro detail inspecting, the idea is to leave no stone unturned, and year on year we make improvements that work their way through into the final quality.

It would be fair to say that the last few years have been a battle.  The recovery process for myself from an illness like M.E. has certainly not been fast.  The main challenge following on from this has been to be able to make more instruments to send to people, without loosing any of the quality I worked very hard to develop in the first place.   We’ve pretty much got to the end of that process and infact been able to improve the quality through the new methods we’ve developed.  Achieving this has however sucked all our resouces, and as a result we’ve been taken away from the creative side of things – developing new designs for music instruments.  I can now feel the tide turning and the burning creative zone, which keeps us up working manically late at night, is once again approaching.  I’ll be doing my best to post news on all but the most covert of operations, so watch this space!
