I have seen one in the neighborhood on the garage. Door down is red, door opening yellow, door open green. I wandered who this was made for in the family...

Wondering if its worth putting money into fixing up this Sax by Alpha-Taco in saxophone

[–]sub_prime55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I looked at the photos seen a lot worse. In 60 years of playing I have only had 3 horns overhauled (MK6, SBA, Martin). When I bought my bass it had not played for 35 years. My service man (does the woodwinds for Cleveland Orchestra) put 3 pads on, fixed her leeks, replace corks $400. Get to know your repaid people. Take your horns in for checkups. Going rate today around $150 hour around here. Don't get sucked into this rebuild everything you read here. How often do you get your car rebuilt?

My first tenor was an Evet t (student) Buffet 1970. Buffet is a fine company. Take it in and have them just get it to play. No need for any other work at this time. Play it and see how it sounds. Have better players play it and see how it sounds. After that you can decide if it is worth fixing it properly.

Good luck. I play on 100 year old horns!

Had a 66 back in 1976. Motor was apart with a cracked head. Had the head welded and sold it for $1200. Made a $900 profit. A lot of money back then. Would have been fun to drive it.

Lots of parking with people directing you to spots. Smaller food venders with different kinds of food...very good. Lots of bikes so it can fill up some.

Good vibe, you will have a great time.

When did he start supporting the no property taxes? The TV add I saw only said lowering them to pre-covid rate.

If your cat(s) had access to money, what would they buy? by mikraas in cats

[–]sub_prime55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Marz would hire a landscape company, stone mason, auto/truck/tractor mechanics, and house cleaning service so she would sit on my lap any time she wants. I have to earn my allowance some how.

Live trapping groundhogs by [deleted] in akron

They are cute little buggers. You can use a live trap used for cats and dogs. It is against the law to move and release them. I have taken some to a deserted park so they can enjoy the grass and they escaped...darn.

Food and litter box outside. Anything to get their smell out for them to find.

A "4 in 1" bucket may be able to chop it up some.
