Can you imagine, casting mouthpieces precisely as for these bunch of super curious horn players who even see a difference in the bore of 0,1 mms or less as a catastrophe - or better said as a welcome excuse fortheir own failure ? Or, how to "home bake" new rotors, where even professional drillers have difficulties making a fitting replacement ? - no way, absolutely no way for the layman, as it is a matter of fractions of mms & degrees. But it could be fun ruining valuable horns by using home baked rotors or pistons.
Surely this kind of technique is used for casting of raw forms which have to be brought to precisision later by the same process as normally. But how about porosity without casting under pressure ? ============================================================ =================================== -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Carlberg Jones Sent: Sunday, July 02, 2006 12:54 PM To: The Horn List Subject: Re: [Hornlist] Silver horn - now NHR It seems to me that this sort of experimentation can lead to technological advancements in an area of little economic interest, such as mouthpiece and rotor/piston design and construction.
