[Harp-L] harmonica practice mute

[joe glover <megashifty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hey everyone,

I am in year 12 (the last year) of high school in Sydney, Australia and i am doing a major design project - which is designing a practice mute for the harmonica.

could you please spare a few moments and answer a few questions regarding the two prototypes that i have made.

you can find the prototypes here:

1. Which shape do you prefer?

2. Would you rather have the raw, oiled timber finish of design #2, or a painted finish like design #1?

3. If you would rather a painted finish, which colour would you want?

4. Are there any likes or dislikes about either design?
