    Any Tips on Learning to Play the Banjo?

    That’s funny I also used the process of getting on the uke to quit smoking. As you said to keep the hands busy. Had the small instrument lying on my desk, while working and every time I was longing for a smoke I fetched it for a few strums. It worked out perfectly.

    Any Tips on Learning to Play the Banjo?

    The nickel strings on a banjo might be an issue. With an arthritic hand I would go for softer nylons as a uke might offer. The fluke is a already mentioned and a good one. A soprano is nice, but the frets are really narrow spaced. A Tenor has a much wider space. It depends a little on how big...

    Bent or Straight Stem?

    A bend pipe will never be a sitter. I often put a pipe down and i am always glad to have some straight pipes that are perfectly balanced to put them on a desk for a rest.

    What Music are You Listening to? September, 2023

    Moondog once more, tune in 5/4 And what Janis Joplin made of this in 4/4 Moondog asked her if the band could play it in 5/4 she answered they were 5 and played it in 4. Ah yes, those rock icons.

    Food you Haven't Had Since your Grandmother(s) Died

    We cook Rouladen once in a while. Great dish with a lot of sauce and potato dumplings, green salad or cooked red cabbage as sides. Easy to do. https://emmikochteinfach.de/klassische-rinderroulade/

    Food you Haven't Had Since your Grandmother(s) Died

    My grandma wasn’t much of a cook, but my grandpa was. I remember his sour pork kidneys “Saure Nierchen” with mash or noodles he served as i was a kid. We lived together in the same house, his house. I tried several recipes later but never had that typical taste, he could provide. I don’t know...

    Anyone restore the wood on wooden chisels using the techniques for a pipe restore?

    Boiled linseed oil is okay. It takes at least 24 hours to dry, best to apply three coats. If you like to use your chisel tomorrow take another product as any compound of commercial wood wax or take bees or carnauba wax. Rub it in with a piece of cloth.
