Medlin Horns

For those not on the yahoo hornlist, I’d like to share a recent post from Richard Hirsh. For those not familiar with him, he is a very highly regarded Horn miracle worker from Chicago. You have probably seen the various horns on hornplayer.net which he has resurrected.

I’ve decided is important is to handcraft all of the braces between the slides and between the outer slide tubes. This gives me control over the width of the braces and makes sure that the valves go together with good allignment, but without any forcing or filling with solder.
