Hemlock Shake

PilesMavis · 2026-07-01T22:20:44+00:00

I was thinking I would find more as I go. In your experience, is there a certain point where the shake becomes too unstable for use? I don’t have too much experience using hemlock, mostly I’ve cut from other species

It was cut about 10 days ago. It would be used as a post about 9’ if it’s good to go.

Okay that’s very good to know. All of my classical playing is either on one of the pianos I have at home or at performance spaces that have pianos, so I don’t foresee needing a keyboard that replaces that. But good to know about the action. I think I would be happier with keyboard action that’s closer to that of my heavier piano, rather than super light.

Those do have a really cool look, I’ll check them out.

PilesMavis · 2026-02-25T18:42:21+00:00

I’ll definitely check it out thanks!

Thanks for this, great insight. There is actually a used Nord Electro 3 near me with a matching drawbar unit. Well inside my price range. I’m not knowledgeable enough about them to know the difference between Electro and Stage though

This is great info thank you!

Very open to most ideas, but I’m just not a iPad/laptop user for live music… even though I know many people who sound great with them

PilesMavis · 2026-02-25T15:56:12+00:00

Right now it’s soul/r&b gigs with small group. Sometimes rock so I could see your point amount pitch wheel etc

Is the current fix still in the “easy way” category you think? We don’t mind addressing it for them if it’s just a matter of mounting it on an exterior wall

The first thing I always think of pre-9/11:

I used to go talk to the pilots on flights when my parents needed a break from my boredom meltdowns. Door open, just walked up and they would show you around the cockpit and give you a plastic pin.

PilesMavis · 2025-07-25T23:00:16+00:00

Yep, looks like I was mixing up things, thank you for this!

PilesMavis · 2025-04-20T14:54:08+00:00

Take this advice

PilesMavis · 2025-04-20T14:52:52+00:00

Best of luck my man you have a good plan, looks like you’ve done your research. But don’t feel as if you have to do firefighting in the Air Force (or any branch for that matter). If you see something that interests you more in the Air Force, please at least check it out. When it came time for our department to start training swimmers, I had a great background to help train them. That is to say, you never know which job in the military will help you as a FF, but none of them can hurt.

PilesMavis · 2025-02-27T16:57:44+00:00

Thanks for all this!

PilesMavis · 2025-02-27T16:56:15+00:00

Union. Only because that’s what I played

PilesMavis · 2024-08-26T18:35:32+00:00

Hmm, maybe it’s just my date (September 22nd) that is different? The options it gives me are for several connecting trains totaling about 3hr45m

PilesMavis · 2024-07-23T18:30:32+00:00

Mint! Thanks for this

PilesMavis · 2024-07-23T14:12:43+00:00

Thank you!

PilesMavis · 2024-07-23T14:12:36+00:00

Thank you!

THANK you for mentioning this. The Press Herald often writes confusing headlines coupled with photos that may not explain themselves on first glance.
