    New L16 Large
           "European Style"
                  Hand Draw Rings

Some call these rounding rings, and they are.
   Additionally, you can use these rings to remove
      dents and re-contour and smooth large tubing.


   
These are the  L16 European Draw Rings.        There are 16 sizes in each set.

            The sizes are:
L16A     36mm            $ 39.50                     Speaking as someone who has reversed
      B     41mm               44.50                 large tubing, I can tell you, that although
      C     46mm               44.50                 not particularly easy, you can turn tubing
      D     51mm               44.50                 around to go the other way.  It is quite an
      E     56mm                58.50                amazing sight to see.  I used large draw
      F     61mm                58.50                rings with the tubing being left hollow.
      G     66mm                58.50                     Some years ago, I did completely
      H     72mm                94.50                reverse a Rudolph Meinl BBb 4 valve
      J      82mm               94.50                tuba for a fellow over at the University
      K      92mm               94.50                of Michigan who had all the fingers on
      L    102mm               99.50                his right hand cut off while doing his
      M    112mm              99.50                 "summer job".  The tuba, was just a few
      N    122mm            102.50                 months old, quite costly and he could
      P    132mm            102.50                 not replace it.  So, I reversed it, including
      Q    142mm            107.50                 all the valve tubing, over a week end.
      R    152mm            107.50                      Some years later, I met Mr. Meinl and

                  You Save $126.00                 money,"  I replied, "and I like a challenge."

     I also used the smaller L15B style draw rings to reverse the valve slide tubing.
