Re: Solder on reeds

["Ken.Hildebrand" <airmojo@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Why mix stainless steel powder or brass powder to the adhesive (epoxy resin, superglue, nail polisth, etc) as opposed to just using the adhesive to add weight to the reed ?

Does the metal powder add MORE needed weight than the adhesive alone?

Or does the metal powder add MORE strength than the adhesive alone?

Where's a good source for these powders ?

My soldering attempts were not very successful, and I definitely want to try something that gives better results!

Thanks!

P.S.  Hey Pat Missin !  You coming to the Buckeye this year ?
