Oh, and to save myself some emails, the X-13 from yesterday is already on its way to a new home.

Time for my regular sneak preview update.

Just yesterday, we were lucky enough to have discovered a, yet to be diagnosed, issue with X-13 bells. Somewhere between the bells being made and the trumpets being mounted, the rims were damaged. By damaged, I mean there is a flat spot on the outer edge of the rim right where it wraps around the bead. We have some theories as to the cause, but the fact remains they are there and not up to standards.

The actual lucky part is that we caught it before the entire batch was mounted so we just have to scrap some bells. The sarcastic lucky part is that a few of them made it all the way to the lacquer room before being caught.

So, I will soon have two satin lacquer X-13 B Stock trumpets available. As anyone who has emailed me in the past about these knows, they don't last long. So if anyone reading this is interested, shoot me an email and you'll get first dibs. Also, if anyone out there has any tips on stressing the importance of material handling, I'm all ears.

Material handling:
1) YOU own it, it's YOUR responsibility to ensure it EXCEEDS your standards.
2) YOUR REPUTATION as a CRAFSTMAN is at stake. That's far more important than meeting a deadline, real or artificial.
3) If you disagree with the above two statements you should be putting mustard on hotdogs for a living.

A possible solution is to flatten the rim all-around and call it the "new custom".
