Questions today included: 🪈 Are Yamahas harder to repair? 🪈 Can you talk a little about your experience with Jeff Weissman? 🪈 Where are these scratches on my silver flute coming from? 🪈 What difference does the type of metal the flute is made out of make? 🪈 When should wooden flutes & piccolos be oiled? Join us next week LIVE or drop your questions in the comments!

We're Going Live again with @Luke Penella at 12pm CT today! Join the Livestream conversation here. Today we'll cover questions like "How did my flute get those scratches on it - even with no rings on?!" and "How often should my wooden piccolo be oiled?" Last week we covered questions like, "Is there a pro tip for cleaning tarnish out of those hard-to-reach spots?" and "Is the donut worth doing?" You can watch the replay here. Comment below! What are your questions for Luke, founder of the Flute Forum, & flute technician? PS - What other kind of livestreams would you like to see this year in the Flute Forum?

Big thanks & shout out to Mid-Atlantic Flute Convention for hosting a forum on Major Online Forums for Flutists! @Katy Wheeler, @Matthew Allison, @Adrian McGrady, @Jeff Smith & Flute World Questions today included: 🪈 Does it really matter how expensive a flute is, or can a good player play well on any flute? 🪈 Is there a pro tip for cleaning tarnish out of those hard-to-reach spots in and around keys, or is a full-on COA necessary to get it done? 🪈 Is the donut worth doing ? 🪈 What mechanisms do you dread working on?
