If you like before and after photos of a flute being redone, have a look at my profile page. As per request of a couple of friends I have finally gotten around to doing this.

Enjoy!

Very nice. Those are some great pics.

Wow, nice job! :-)

That's awesome! Can they buffer scratches out of a flute? (my flute has a couple of mean scratches)

Yes, I do all my own work. I use an electo plater to do that gold. I prefer not to go into details because there has been some bad history on this topic on this forum before.

Yes, I am in the business of buying and selling used flutes. I don't have much listed right now, but you are welcome to look at my site. Make sure to click on the slide show to enlarge the pictures.

Thanks for the compliment. A lot of the repairs I learned from a repair tech in NY and then picked up along the way.
The rest I did on my own.
