Hello Kevin and all

   I noticed this in Kevin's email:

   ...so i closed the G hole with glue at one side until it was in tune.
   I'm wondering why you put the glue at one side rather than the top?
   Putting glue at the side will flatten the note by making the hole
   smaller but this would need more glue than putting it at the top of the
   hole which flattens it by a) slightly moving the hole down and b)
   making the hole smaller. This double whammy effect means less glue
   needed and (more often than not) bright tone preserved.
   Cheers
   Anthony
