Inflatable Double Bass Case





Large musical instrument players suffer from a common problem. Their instrument’s cases are either hard and thus large, heavy and expensive; or soft, offering little or no protection. The solution presented here is an inflatable case that can be deflated when not in use. This enables musicians to store their case whilst practicing at home, marrying the desirable attributes of a soft case with the protection of a hard case.
Tools for Serving an Orchestra

The tools presented in this collection focus on the brass section; this section of the orchestra presents a number of instances where apt tools are necessary but absent. One of the most commonly neglected prerequisites of a brass musical instrument is the lubrication that greases the slides that enable it to be tuned. The tools shown here are used to remove these tuning slides when lubrication has not been regularly or sufficiently applied, leading to the slides becoming stuck. For both amateur and profesional players this all too common problem mostly resulting in costly and time consuming trips to repair shops. The tools offered here empower musicians to service and repair their own instruments, keeping performers in constant contact with their most prized possession and primary money making device
