Hello Harp Techs, thank you for nudging me to create this new feature to the bluesharmonica.com site. Starting yesterday, under the "Equipment" channel you will find HARPSMITH Bench, a video demonstration of the popular Forum topics. 

Our first video details how to make the 3 'n 1 harmonica tool. Based on the foundational Circle of 5ths (invented in 1670), friend and student, Ron Lew and myself modified the wheel specifically for the harmonica player:

  1. Harmonica key and mode selector
  2. Chord identifier
  3. Relative minor locator

I'm lining up my filming schedule for 2021, feel free to let me know what topics you would like for me to embellish.

Your Harpsmith, Kinya

Double-Cap Rivets

Hello Harp Techs, this just in from co-developer Ron Lew:

Double-Cap Rivets are definitely a more professional looking fastener over the split brads. Thank you Ron!

Your Harpsmith, Kinya
