Do you want to leave a tip so Art can continue to make more quality videos?

Thank you! Would it be ok to create washers from Teflon sheets as well?
Alas, Art has solved the age old dilemma of fitting a round peg in a square hole😆😆
Having had to fidget with clockspring mechanical rotors more than once, I can attest to the fact that you made this look 1000x easier than it really is.
I have a blessing marching baritone and they play so flat I can never tune them properly. Is there a way to make the instrument play sharper? I already have the slides pushed in and have tried different mouthpieces .
Have a couple other people try playing it and see if they get the same result. If they do, you could try to shorten the main tuning slide. Other than that, I do not know what else you can do.
Gran trabajo!
Nice and simple method, thank you !
If you ever had time to show how this kind of clockspring rotor levers are made (particularly, how to dismantle/change a clock spring) I would be really interrested, I see many old instruments like this and I do not feel confortable trying to repair it, I fear not to be able to reassemble it afterwards...
I would have loved to do a video about this, but it was a customer's instrument and it did not need to be taken apart. I was not going to risk a customer's instrument to make a video on a repair that was not necessary. I have taken them apart before and it is a fascinating set-up. When I get one of my own or a customer instrument that needs this repair, I will get a video of it.
@@TheBrassandWoodwindShop yes of course, I understand that you do not want to take unecessary risks and time on a customer's horn. I was asking in case you have a there's a need to dismantle the spring. I should probably find a junk clock spring horn and have a try.
I would also be interested in seeing this. One of those things I don't want to take apart to explore unless it is my own instrument.
