 tip repair of mouthpiece
Author: Brenda Siewert

Recently I mentioned dropping and breaking a favorite Kaspar mouthpiece. The tip broke off and left a smooth smiley-faced shape. Two pieces and some shattered pieces would make it pretty difficult to put back together. I sent the mouthpiece off to a board member who said he thought he could fix it, but it looks like that isn't possible and it's on its way back to me.

Since breaking the Kaspar I've been looking for another one as good and haven't yet found it. I came close with a Chicago that looked to me like it had had a tip repair in the same shape as the Cicero I broke. I can't say absolutely it had been broken because it was advertised as having a "deep scratch" on the tip. It was in the perfect shape of a smiley-face, but was perfectly smooth on the inside. So, my question is this: is it possible to do something like a "tip transplant" on a rare mouthpiece like my broken Cicero?
