Subj: [kl] kid glove leather pads-R13
Date: Sat, 28 Jan 2006 00:21:55 -0500

Does anyone on the list have any thoughts on using white kid glove
leather pads for the lower joint? -- the uppers would still be remaining
in cork

On an R-13 can I solicit opinions on modifying the "choke" ( the
narrowing of the bore right at the North end of the bell. More
accurately, the narrowing of the bell begins immed. below the end of the
tenon socket. I have heard of a few ways to modify this area, with the
intent to improve the mid line B natural. Any experiences to share?

Thanks for your input

Dave G.
