The Boy Mechanic, Volume 1: 700 Things for Boys to Do · Chapter 154Restoring Tone to a Cracked Bell
This chapter is not translated yet. You are reading the original.
Many a bell with a deadened tone due to a cracked rim, can be given its original clear ringing sound by sawing out the crack with a common hacksaw. Make the saw cut along the line of the crack. The opening caused by the saw will allow the free vibration of the metal.
