It's probably stupid of me to ask this, but is there a chance that somehow the valves may have got mixed up ?
George
When I put it away last, it was functioning perfectly, but every possibility needs to be checked, therefore I will.
@kehaulani said in This is strange.:
Have you run a snake through the third valve slide to make sure there's no obstruction?
That is something I plan to do, yes. BUT- here is why I am not in a huge hurry to try that: when third valve is depressed, the air goes through just fine.

I have a Bach Tr300 that is in fine condition but is never used except for a back up in emergencies.
So recently I took it out to just give it a check and found that the third valve stops the air when not depressed. This has never happened to this trumpet or any other for that matter. Ever.
Yes, I did check the alignment twice, thrice, maybe fourteen times or so, in case you were thinking of asking.
Any idea what I might check to correct this? It is a decent back up horn, so I want to keep it functional.
Thanks.Sounds like you may have a back up for a lamp now.
Hurtful. Just hurtful.

@curlydoc You could add this to Artist on BOARD https://trumpetboards.com/topic/256/artist-on-board/439 as well.
I agree. Nice work!

Not even Switzerland?
Seems like they would qualify, somewhat.I believe their cars only work in neutral.... but if pushed downhill, should get some speed. That would not be too safe in hearing the car coming though since what's a Matterhorn can be an issue.
A little known secret is how they make their cheese have all the holes

Just brought this one to the client's home last night for them to see their commission in the proper setting. They were thrilled with it. Even their teen aged kids were amazed by it. I think they liked it. I was very relieved.
A blonde guy is in the shower when his wife hollers, did you find the shampoo? He says, yes, but it says “for dry hair” and mine is wet now.
Same blonde guy gets home and sees an envelope on his front door mat. It says, do not bend so he spends the next two hours trying to pick it up.
Then he was on the phone with the emergency room, shouting,HER CONTRACTIONS ARE TWO MINUTES APART, WHAT SHOULD I DO?
Voice on the other end asks, is this her first child?
NO, he says, THIS IS HER HUSBAND!
I saw an ad for a radio for 1$!! But the volume was stuck on full.
I decided I can’t turn that down.

Just found this great score to "Silent Night" Looks pretty authentic to me... I'll be rehearsing it tonight in preparation to the Holidays:
Missing some measures, though. Guess you can ad-lib the rest
This is a painting I have shown in the past, but now is going to my niece's new home waiting to be completed.
Actually it is already in her possession but not yet in its final destination!
This was the painting I sold at the recent show. I also sold one print and one couple has commissioned me to do a painting of a great stream on their property.
So, that was good. Not too shabby.
How many people will say, “there's no comparison” for one reason or another. I say it all the time…..now I am wondering how crazy is that?
Like, what’s the difference between an elephant and a loaf of bread?
Oh, I would say, there’s no comparison whatsoever.
So don’t send me to the grocery store for a loaf of bread.
Consider yourself warned.

Now there’s a case where it would have been better to close the barn door after the horses were out.

Great work Wayne Mathisen, and all the other Waynes that worked with you in playing one of my favorite marches.
And I might add, a very ambitious project.George
Thanks, George. You can only imagine. What an unruly bunch they were. It was all I could do to keep them under control!
