Lip Stopper?
« on: April 13, 2017, 02:58:46 PM »
This may have been asked before, but where can you buy replacement lip stoppers?   I have a couple old Wingbones and a Trumpet that needs new stoppers.
If I'm not back in five minutes, wait longer!

Go to lowes, Home Depot or ace and get a #2 rubber stopper. Cut in half or leave whole depending on what length you like. Center drill with probably 1/4" bit for wingbone. Trumpet drill will depend on mouthpiece size.

Beveled faucet washers work well also.

I just got some #2's and put them on the grinder.  Turned out pretty good.
