My goodness, have I said something to offend?
And how did Loren find out my wife's pet name for me?

"cocus" you surely are a sh-t stirrer
Loren....didn't you consider a band or plate insert before selling? I know it can be expensive, but surely could have saved the heartbreak.

David,

I did speak to Patrick about the possibility of a band or plate, however he told me that (at the time) he didn't do that sort of work, and he suggested I use the Cyanoacrylate method that John S. used.

In hindsight, I should have traded the Cocus flute back to Pat for a Blackwood version as soon as the allergy developed. In the end, I sold the flute because I needed money to survive on, not because of the allergy problem.

Pat told me he was hoping to be able to do lip plates in the future, so who knows, perhaps by the time my name comes up on his list for a keyed flute......
