Subj: Re: [kl] loose barrel rings

Karl,
Maybe I really didn't explain that to well. What I meant was since paper
will absorb moisture quicker that would, even by blowing into the instrument
it will condensate under the ring. Paper is just a band-aid it acts as a
temporary space filler so the ring won't move, but the ring is not actually
doing its job by compressing the wood within the tenon ring groove and
keeping the wood in check. I've made custom hard rubber, abs and delrin
rings for customers over the years, the said they didn't like the look of
the metal rings. They worked just fine. I hope I answered your question.
