I'll try it again.

Alright, figured it out by hook or by crook. I deleted the Lion King, no offense to Louis, but I'm not sure he was around in the 70's!!

I don't know... what's wrong with a good ol' catcher's mitt? It protects against any wood that strikes it as a result of foul tips, AND can handle the balls that fall into the pouch!

And how does this relate to back pain... less strain [during the activity], less pain on the axial skeletal system; just to make sure we are all keeping on track with this thread!

I don't know, I think it's a swing and a miss! Unless the pitcher is throwing all balls..., might be the only way to get on base. I guess it would depend on the patient, it could be a home run! Batter up!

Well, I'm not in the symphony..... . Isn't it ironic that the last 5 letters of symphony are.... oh never mind.

I had to play "Mr. Hollands Opus" tonight. Glad I have the endurance, strength, and breath control to play the "American Symphony" first section. We followed that up with "The Sinfonians". Those were after we played Bernstein's "Slava". I understand not being a fan, I'm not a fan, but I know what it takes. I've also taken the good doctor's advice about moving long tones to avoid stiff lips and find them as effective and they break the monotony of trying to be a drone. I don't know anyone that loves them.

One other point about carpal tunnel syndrome that is pertinent to the catchers mitt, the most prescribed non operative treatment for this entity is a splint, specifically a cock up splint for the wrist. The catchers mitt also will serve well in this function, placing the wrist in the cock up position.
Please see the below videos for illustration:

@adc
No Rowuk was NOT the owner!

SchilkeB6, the original name of Solar Bell, back to it!

Not a huge cornet collection, but of what I do have, my Conn 12A is my favorite. The 2 Conn 80As are also nice!

Finally figured out posting photos! Here is a shot of my Schlub flugelhorn.

I would say that of all the mpcs mentioned so far, the Stork is the "Picc" of the litter!!

I'd participate, but I only have 18+ horns to evaluate...

@J-Jericho I have had the too large file thing too.
