    わたくしは日本でブラスバンドでトロンボーンを長年演奏していましたがその間に何度か画像にあるチュウ二ング管をぶっつけ凹みを作ってしまいましたがこのような修理する技術があるんですね🎵何度か楽器を変えましたがCONNは憧れの楽器でした‼️一番凄いことしたのは吹奏楽コンクールの練習中に内側のスライド管の滑りが悪かったので両手でもった瞬間ボキッとスライド管が真っ2っに折れてしまいました‼️その時は頭の中が真っ白になってしまいましたねぇ🎵その時は日本のYAMAHA楽器さんに修理してもらいましたが楽器職人さんは凄い技術で修理なさるのですね🎵びっくりしますね🎵これこそプロの技術の世界ですね🎵凄すぎますね楽器壊したのはもう50年以前も前ですが凄い職人がいつの時代もお出でる‼️素晴らしいプロテクニックが拝見できて幸運ですハッピーですね🎵最高ですね🎵お仕事頑張ってください凄い職人技披露してくださいブラバンマンの救世主様ですねぇ🎵素晴らしい人生をお過ごしですね🎵凄すぎ素晴らしいですね🎵長生きしてブラバンマンの救世主様であってくださいお願いいたします🎵

    I’ve been repairing horns for about 9 years myself, I really liked your explanation of using the “light lines”. As long as the horn is lacquered or silver plated I try to get reflections as straight as possible (if that makes sense). I’ve got votaw hammers myself so technique is a little different but this video is still valuable. Now I’m itching for some dent work to hit my bench soon. I may have to just get some stuff out of the junk pile to mess with.

      People who do PDR (paintless dent removal) on cars use a special lined light box for this same purpose.

    Great tutorial Wes. Although I'm in a different industry we share many common restoration situations. I have learned several valuable lessons from you. I have also discovered some resources as well. I am investing in a set of the hammers you displayed in this video. Many of the parts I restore are pure unobtainium. Useful tools like these are extremely helpful to accomplish parts restoration. I have invested many hours modifying or developing necessary tools through the decades. These hammers will be a great addition to the arsenal.
    A heartfelt thanks for your continued investment of time to help and educate. We are always learning. Sometimes learning from unusual sources. Be good. Have a Deluxe day!

    Thank you for your videos Mr. Lee, they are very interesting and educational. Could you enable the subtitles option in Spanish, since I don't speak your language and I don't understand a lot of important information. I hope that this request does not represent an inconvenience for you. From Buenos Aires Argentina I send you an affectionate greeting

    I really enjoyed discovering your channel ! The balance between your great teaching of instrument repair skill and the almost ASMR visual experience of watching instruments get repaired make a very entertaining mix. The camera work is nice but I thini the audio could use a bit of improvement so we can hear you at a more constant volume throughout the video, maybe a small wearable mic ?
    Keep doing a good job ☺️

    A key consideration here is that the "hammer" faces are to be kept polished. Any dent or imperfection in the face will be transferred to the brass.

    Thank you so much. I am learning much, watching you. Have burnished some dents out. but this is a clear indication that I need to buy some hammers, bar stock, bearings, and trashed horns, or talk to an artist who has the equipment! I have a 1901? functioning, Parisian Mellophone, bell curves down... Love the sound, but know it could be better. Badly dented all along the back of the bell, well past where it is brazed onto the valve assembly, and one is cracked through (needs a patch?).

    Looks like I have a whole lot of practicing to do in the future. Did you just find lots of instruments that were in really sorry shape as you were developing your skills? Since I'm one of those people who cringe at the thought that anyone would throw away an brass item just to have something that looks perfect, I've gathered a few older pieces to return to service. Thanks so much for the near views while using the hammers. It helped see what was taking place.

  • @bgclarinet
    @bgclarinet Год назад

    Do the hammers dimple the brass? (I could see the resulting finish being a little less smooth than "new," which is of course way less bad than "crushed"!)

    Thanks for the great videos! I'm curious about the blue vise stand at 17:33. Do you have it bolted to the cement or did you make a wooden plinth for it? I'm interested in getting a stand like this, but I worry that I'll ruin my garage floor.

    @wesleemusicrepair9820 Do you know anyone with a high-speed camera? (I think if you could demonstrate your dentwork with a high-framerate slowdown, you'd be able to share your techniques more efficiently!)

    Hello Do you play an instrument as well?

    • @wesleemusicrepair9820
      @wesleemusicrepair9820  2 года назад +2

      Yes. Son of a trumpet player so started there. Switched to trombone in middle school. By the time I graduated tech school I played all brass and woodwind and a a little double reed. Worked on that to get it to where I feel I need to be. Also play string instruments. I don’t play piano nearly as well as once did though.
