I have my Tombos 4th apart going 'over the top' viewed from RH side. I find this works best for the kay changes in the music I'm playing. Let me know how you get on. Ron

He also built a case for it and this makes it a very unusual machine. He based himself on the pictures you sent me. Thanks. As soon as I get it in detailed pictures, I'll post it here. Meanwhile, you're invited to my own little site where I keep Record of my harmonica performances. It's on Facebook and is called Norm's harmonica performances. The keys I have on the caroussel are A Bb C D Ee F G. What a nice instrument and thanks to you my friend.

Copy me with some images when you're finished.

I - have - been quiet in recent times. This given I play with;

Scottish Moothie Group here;

Garioch Fiddlers here;

- And am still in full time employment; which means I do not have an awful lot of spare time for additional sessions.

Let me know how you're getting along with the carousel. Did you go with a 4 x station - or a 6 x station?

Regards. Ron
