Re: [Hornlist] Tuning slide markers (??)

[David Goldberg]

I was taught to make a pencil mark on the slide along the rim of the 
outer tube to indicate how far to push the slide in.  If your slide 
doesn't move by itself, that seems as simple a solution as possible, and 
features not only the flexibility of pushing in farther when necessary, 
but also it keeps a memory of where the slide has been lately. If you 
dedicate a special pencil for only this job, it should last about 500 years.
