Hey Kinya,

I'm seriously considering trying to rig up a mechanical system to get absolutely consistent airflow results for my tuning table.

I'm wondering if you have done such a thing or if you just use the bellows or the tube?

Obviously it's going to require a vacuum pump of some kind and some valves.

Anybody set up a rig like this? Got any specs?

Thanks,

TomE

Sjoeberg tuning table

I may have found it! 

I have a pin valve inline and I hooked the table up tpo a nice shop vac turned down to its lowest setting.

Now I have to see if it's quiet enough to not mess with the Peterson strobotuner.

Fingers crossed!

Hey Grasshopper, good to hear

Hey Grasshopper, good to hear from you.

John Ingham purchased Masterharp from Dick Sjoberg and is now seeking qualified buyers to acquire the business from him. Arguably John has the most exhaustive library of empiracle data on the subject of harmonica tuning table devices. Check out:

p.s. hey maybe you should consider purchasing Masterharp ;o)

Your Harpsmith, Kinya
