Good news for all, especially in Eastern Germany and Northwestern Czech Rep: Workshop with Brendan at Seydel's in Klingenthal, Germany, March 16-19 2023 https://www.seydel1847.de/epages/Seydel1847.sf/en_US/?ViewObjectID=66378875&Currency=EUR https://www.seydel1847.de/epages/Seydel1847.sf/sece065509b...

The first point which Dorothy mentioned - tracking and marking of single modular reeds when mounted, changed or stored - is an issue I have struggled with as well. And I still have not found my final solution for this. Therefore I am interested in further informations and new ideas about this too. I...

And one more question I forgot yesterday: Did you find a good way to label the single reeds permanently without scratches or other damages to their surface which could tarnish the air-tightness? How are single reeds labeled for distribution now? I did it like this up till now: https://up.picr.de/43...

I do have a couple of questions. Me too. And btw @Brendan: this is a longtime experience report as well. Here are some answers to rishios questions and my own questions in addition: - Does the adhesive wear down after a few times of taking it apart, causing the seal to leak? Yes, it does. The adhes...
