Re: Chamber Size

Jeremiah

I'm skittish about doing it because one of the pipes is a Cavicchi 5 c. The other is a David Enrique. Both have 3/4" chambers and I like a 7/8" Are you interested in doing it?

Mylands

Does anybody know where I can get Mylands Transparent Polish? I can't find it anywhere in the U.S.
