 Re: My own horror story...

Today I spent some time with a repairman in whom I have great confidence. He told me of an english horn that came to him in which the bore had been badly gouged by a screwdriver ill-advisedly used to shove a stuck swab down the top joint. The result was a horribly ruined intonation in the left hand notes. He layered epoxy in the gauged-out places, using a tool of his own creation, and gradually was able to restore the instrument to proper pitch and resonance. Should you be looking for someone to repair your misshapen octave vent holes with this approach, I would recommend him -- Larry Naylor in Englewood, CO.
