This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Hi Jeff, A studio I work for here at the beach had the same problem so I attached = a brass hinged lid prop (I think available from Schaff or APSCO. I = bought several off of a tech who was retiring a number of years ago.) to = the regular stick. this requires drilling into the stick and using two = wood screws but it looks good and works well. the brass prop is about = 14" tall. BTW, when is our next chapter meeting? Have you heard anything lately?

One of our pianists here plays with our wind ensemble, amidst complaints of the other players not being able to see the = conductor above the lid on the long stick, but the piano can't be heard when the = lid is on the short stick. They've also tried lid removed, but that also yields unacceptable results. It would need to be some sort of device which would only be used in = certain situations, so it couldn't be a permanently installed prop. Long = story short, neither does the piano they perform on belong to the school of music, so it would have to be easily installed/removed without risking damage to the instrument. Any ideas?
