How To Replace a Saxophone Neck Cork

[@freddyluckily6286]

Great tutorial. Clear and detailed!

[@LaurasLastDitch]

There was something very satisfying about watching Art put the cork on the saxophone neck. Good job, Art!

[@WLeo-kz5yy]

Laura's Last Ditch Vintage Kitchenwares I was thinking the same thing and he isn't even my brother lol. . . Great job Art!

[@brianbogle5050]

Thanks for this. All of my local techs have moved away so I'm goin to try this one by myself. Your video made the most sense of any.

[@kimberlymayo9951]

Kind of interesting to see things that are not in your daily life. Thanks for sharing your passion. 😊

[@jonniewadd56]

Okay, I'm good to go. Many videos for this on YT, but this one is my definite choice to use for replacing my neck cork. Thanks!!

[@jenniferrooney9390]

I have no need for this but I'm a Parsnips and Parsimony subscriber and your vlog wasn't up yet LOL. I must say you did a great job. Very easy to follow and understand.

[@luannfleck6848]

Looks like hard work

[@alext9067]

I agree. I was watching a guitar repair video yesterday and I don't know what he was talking about. These videos are explained extremely well.

[@nathanpillsbury2631]

what a great tip to use the tenor piece as a guide!

[@davemiller7633]

What you just did in 5 minutes would take me a lifetime

[@faner255]

thanks man, all the other videos i have watched didnt explain as good as you did

[@joannayeo9545]

Excellent tutorial Art, so clear and easy to understand. I don't actually play a musical instrument but this was really interesting to watch. Wishing you and your family many blessings with all of your various projects x

[@kennethgsaxrepair38]

Thank you very much for sharing this! I have never heard of the paraffin wax application prior to cork grease and the tape trick is brilliant! thanks to you!! : )

[@tracywebuyhomes7840]

Very interesting, you make it seem easy but I'm sure that cork can try your patience at time.

[@rasyhabintanggautama]

Its fucking hard, I had run out of patience then threw it

New desk carpet looks good!

[@jonniewadd56]

Funny what the female gender notices!! LOL.. I didn't notice the nice berber carpet ;)

[@s.m8766]

awesome! I love the trick with the masking tape! :)

[@karynb7781]

I would title this video 'Lucky Sax Owner ~ Gets A Quality New Neck-Cork!' I think they'll have No Worries! So Nice.

[@colincrichton]

Thanks sooo much for posting this video! The instructions were very clear. Actually quite surprised how easy it was to do myself. All the best! Colin 😀

[@richardwerblow2106]

Art is the best!!

Hi

[@lesleyoliver5582]

Neat job. Your such a patient person. It would be interesting to do your story because it isn't a common profession (probably many wouldn't even know of it).what initially brought your attention to this, how've you started etc. thanks from Australia

[@cherylblais9611]

I'm also a Parsnips and Parsimony subscriber. I have great respect for your craft! Please tell us how you came to have an interest and gain the knowledge for what you do! I grew up playing the flute throughout school. Sadly I no longer have one.

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

I should do a video about how I got into band instrument repair.

[@Doggo_Norse]

Very helpful thank you for this

[@elizabethwilliams1523]

I subscribe to parsnips and parsimony. like that Chanel. loved watching you work on the sax. very interesting

[@javierquesada798]

I hope you are well teacher

[@Lee.M.Easton]

"Blow out the flame of course"

[@syamambaram5907]

Can you please tell me the name of the glue to stick it

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

It is contact cement. You can get it from Ferree's Tools or your local hardware store.

[@chrisdeecaregiver2]

Really interesting . Do you only repair all types of instruments? I have a trombone (it was my Dad's and it's over 60 years old.) Are these worth repairing? I heard that there isn't much interest in trombones anymore. What do you think?

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

I repair all brass and woodwind instruments. Trombones have been very popular for the past few years. In fact, I am running low on them. A 60 year old trombone may or may not be worth repairing. It just depends on the condition.

[@chrisdeecaregiver2]

I don't think there's anything wrong with it. It hasn't been out of the case since the 1950s. Dad had requested that I donate it to a school district but if it's worthless, I don't want to do that. If I were to email a picture of it, long with the makers name could you tell me if it's junk or???

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

You can send a picture to Art's business email and he can take a look at it. [e-mail]

[@AnhVũ-e5l]

I need to buy *Cork Cement, i'm from vietnam...help me please

[@czarinc.6971]

iv'e been told that the brass is a layer of paint on the metal and that using flame will leave carbon stains inside the neck... help

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

It sometimes does leave some marks, but they are easy to clean with a cloth and a flute cleaning rod.

[@germygon60gonzalez2]

What cane of glue can I use?

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

contact cement or cork cement

[@jpig6]

You didn't address the different lengths to allow for the conical shape of the neck - this is reallly important and I'm not clear on this

[@kennethgsaxrepair38]

I know you are very busy, but if you could share a video teaching how you regulate the linked keys on the saxophone (i.e. G#, Bb, A, bis), it would be very helpful, because I am currently wrestling with getting these keys perfectly synchronized. I am getting there, but it is taking a long time and there must be a better way that I'm not aware of. : )

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

That can be a little tricky, but it is very do-able for anyone who has a little mechanical ability. I will try to get a video on soon, but it will probably be another week or more before I can do that. Thank you for watching and feel free to ask any questions and make any more suggestions about videos you would like to see.

[@haesolpark1062]

lol Gaylord ruler where did this come from

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

I think it came from an auction that I went to at a school that closed down.
