Ok, Mike, I've got a rare Edison Grand Opera cylinder on 4 min. wax. It is a great basso and I don't want to lose it. It is still intact and plays with a tick. The crack runs the length of the cylinder.

Mike, you are a true master of your art. A couple years ago you restored a badly damaged Shackleton cylinder for a good friend of mine. It even had a missing part were multiple cracks were joining. Now it is playable again, without the slightest skip. Every time I see this cylinder I am still equally struck with awe.

I have watched him at work truly remarkable. I have been able to make new cylinders, but never had luck putting broken ones together. Many thank and I always send people your way with broken cylinders.
