Good comments, S B and Ken bring up VG points. After making MINOR repairs to a student cl, I play it with one of my known-good mps, then their [cleaned] mp. If the latter is quite poor [and/or has a scratched table/tip] , with their approval, I'll lightly flatten the table on fine emery paper/cloth, which reveals the curve-length and its uniformity, and then decide whether to recommend a new one, or try to improve the curve [step-wise], with polishing on newspaper. I limit anything I attempt to well below the refacing science that can be found on "mouthpiecework@yahoogroups.com", which I find interesting/informative re: my feeble efforts. Just MY thots. Don
Thanx, Mark, Don
