New CBR Handbell Repair Shop in Colorado

I talked to Greg this week and he's made some significant improvements on P&F clappers to eliminate the noise and side-to-side motion in the mechanism.  Good news!  :-)

Re-Post:

CBR Handbell Repair opened a new branch in Colorado that is being run by Marlow Cowan's son Greg.  Marlow said Greg literally grew up in his shop and can do anything he can, from fabricating parts to repairing cracked castings.  Greg machined clappers for my E3 and F3 Maryland bells some years ago because commercial units would not fit the castings… he does amazing work!  He is focusing primarily on refurbishing Whitechapel and Petit and Fritsen bells, but like Marlow, has worked on American and antique instruments as well.  The shop in Ankeny, IA will remain open for now.  Marlow (who is 97 years young!) has experienced workers and a shop foreman employed at that location.  The new shop address is: Greg Cowan, 18410 Hackney Circle, Colorado Springs, CO 80908  Phone is 719-4953353 Cell 719-3301588  Email is: greg...@yahoo.com   

 

Thanks!
