First off, if you don't have an instructor, you really should get one.
Practice pipes come in a number of configurations. Some are poly (plastic) others are made of brass. Some have a single drone, others have two (tenor/bass) and others, though probably a type of smallpipes, have three (tenor/bass/baritone). The assembly is very similar to a full set of pipes. A guide to bagpipes anatomy is here:
www.BagpipeJourney.com/articles/bagpipes_anatomy.shtml
Also, if you know the brand, there may be photos on the maker's website to use as a guide.
If you continue to have problems, your retailer should be willing to assist you putting them together. If they aren't, never buy from them again.
And don't forget your/an instructor as a helpful source.
