All. Being extremely busy this past year (very long story)  I'm cross
posting instead of finding time to surf the IN. Should there be a website
where I can research F E Olds trumpet s/ns I'd be much obliged for the info.
Please. No Political Correctness. I haven't the time to spar. Take care. GN

[Hornlist] Valve Oil

2004-05-18 Thread J. Kosta
I've been satisfied with a 'do it myself' blend of sewing machine oil and
Ultra-Pure Unscented Lamp Oil (pure kerosene). I blend them together to get
a mix that works well depending on the seasonal temperature.
I use this on the bearing ends under the valve caps, and in the gap under
the swing-arm for the other bearing ends. I mix the oil in a small bottle
that has an eye-dropper lid.

[Hornlist] Presperation

2004-05-18 Thread MichaelK216897
   Hello everyone,
   I was wondering how you can tell if your presperation is really 
acidic. My hands sweat alot when I'm playing my horn, and by the time I'm done 
practicing, the horn goes from nice clean and shiny to ugly grime over it, 
particularly the hand guard area and the inside of the bell. I wipe it down with a t 
shirt during playing, but completly wipe down everything with laquer cloth once 
a week.
   Im playinng on a Yamaha 668NDII, and I'm assuming its laquered 
Some spots seem to have a less shiny area and like some dull little specks (i got 
the horn like that new, could the laquer have been applied thinly to that 
area? Or just something that makes the metal not so mirror looking?)

   Best,
   Mike
