[LUTE] Re: Lute humidifiers
Any music store will probably carry the type of humidifiers made to fit into the sound holes of cellos or violins (basically a perforated plastic tube with a sponge inside). I use one of these and simply place it in the peg box area of the case. I've also tried a kitchen sponge in a baggie, (with some holes cut in it), but mildew did build up in the sponge, so I prefer the violin humidifier.

Sponge, Dampit, What hast thou? I find an equal amount of danger from dripping moisturizers as from dryness. I have a room humidifier running night and day between Oct. and May.

[LUTE] Re: Lute humidifiers
Living in South Florida this seems a quaint idea, but when growing up in Connecticut our house had trays built into the tops of the radiator enclosures. Filling these with water every few days during the winter kept the air humidified. But I suppose today there are more efficient heating methods than radiators.

[LUTE] Re: Lute humidifiers
I've been using the Kyser Lifegaurd guitar humidifier. This is really something that's supposed to go in an acoustic guitar's sound hole, (it is too big for my classical guitar) but I just stick it under the strings directly on the rose. It works on my instruments, but it might be too thick for some lutes. I had worries at first that it might warp the soundboard or even drip water into the instrument, but after constant use over two long and brutal Rochester winters, I see no ill effects. I store the lute in a closet with a humidifier as well. http://www.amazon.com/Kyser-Lifeguard-String-Guitar-Humidifier/dp/B0002GZSNQ Chris Christopher Wilke Lutenist, Guitarist and Composer www.christopherwilke.com --- On Sun, 3/6/11, Dan Smith dansmithgui...@yahoo.com wrote: From: Dan Smith dansmithgui...@yahoo.com Subject: [LUTE] Lute humidifiers To: lute@cs.dartmouth.edu Date: Sunday, March 6, 2011, 7:45 PM Does anyone have any recommendations for a humidifier for lute.

[LUTE] Re: Lute humidifiers
A simple, home-made humidifier can be constructed from sponge and a plastic film case. Drill or punch holes (I use 3/16 or 1/4 bit) in the film case, in the upper 2/3s of the film case. Cut a piece of sponge to fit inside the film case and insert the sponge. Fill it with or soak it in water, shake out the excess and dry off the exterior. If you drill the holes in the upper part of the film case, excess water will be held in the case and not drip onto the instrument or its case. This sort of humidifier can be inserted and suspended between strings of most classical guitars or can sit upright in a lute or barqoue guitar case. I used a small Tupperware-style container (punching holes only in the lid) for my larger theorbo case. I assume that finding the plastic film cases may be a bit more challenging than it was a few years ago, but I know some folks do still have and use film in cameras. - Original Message - From: Edward Mast nedma...@aol.com To: Mayes, Joseph ma...@rowan.edu Cc: Suzanne Angevine suzanne.angev...@gmail.com; Dan Smith dansmithgui...@yahoo.com; lute@cs.dartmouth.edu Sent: Monday, March 07, 2011 11:47 AM Subject: [LUTE] Re: Lute humidifiers Living in South Florida this seems a quaint idea, but when growing up in Connecticut our house had trays built into the tops of the radiator enclosures.

[LUTE] Re: Lute humidifiers
Does anyone have any recommendations for a humidifier for lute. Would appreciate any advice - thanks. regulating the humidity of your home might be the best option; all your instruments, your furniture, pets, people will all benefit. Mildew is the enemy, and the smaller the case the more likely it is to go mildew. Talk to music stores which deal with serious students of violin, cello, and piano, all of which have comercial solutions for humidification. -- Dana Emery To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
