Maintenance

I keep two of these in my pipe kit. One for drying and one for applying oil. The stocks and tuning slides get dried each time after I play. A few drops of oil get applied to the stocks after cleaning before I put on a new bag.

Canning bag seasoning.

Bees wax for your hemping pleasure. Out of cobbler's wax for now.

2 oz. (50 gram / large) rolls of waxed Irish linen (hemp). Use 3-strand (thinner) for everything but water traps. Use 4-strand (thicker) for water traps. The thicker hemp goes on faster but does not give you the fine adjustment of the thinner hemp.
