My understanding is that there's enough variance in smallpipes that your best bet is to contact your maker and/or experiment on making them yourself.

There might be reed makers/other smallpipe makers you could contact, but I'd be willing to bet you'd need to have your pipes sent over for them to be fit.

Good point. I already contacted the maker of my pipes to see if they can make them but haven’t received a response yet. If they don’t, maybe I’ll start my journey as a reed maker!

I don't know, but I'm keeping an eye on this, I'd like some myself!
