Yes, John, the string-down-the-bore technique is somewhat old, I've never tried it but it is said to raise the pitch such as making a 430-435 cps horn come up to 440. Heard it doesnt last because of the nodes/antinodes fraying from oscillations/changes. Re: the glue job, you'll need a long case and LOTS of care to avoid rebreakage. I've never had much success short of replacement of tenon/socket. Don
