BRASS AND WOODWIND REPAIRS |
|
Help Needed.
Hello, My name is Peter Windsor, I am 51 years old and have been repairing Brass and Woodwind instruments for over 30 years. Trained in UK before emigrating to NZ in 1982. I have trained 2 British technicians and one in NZ. I have had my own business for over 20 years and now semi-retired

THE PROBLEM
Tonga has many good school and church bands. Fund raising is often successful and new musical instruments are often supplied. The instruments supplied are not "set up" specifically for the Pacific Islands where no servicing/repair dept exists. Instruments at present either stay broken and playable instruments soon fail due to no maintenance. Instruments are now sent to NZ or Australia for repair often the freight cost (they are big, heavy and fragile) exceeds the cost of the repair and in many cases the value of the broken instrument!
THE SOLUTION
Tonga needs a small workshop (one bench type operation) Where all the instruments can be repaired. Tonga needs a suitable person who lives in Tonga (and preferably plays in one of the bands) Who is willing to learn general musical instrument servicing and repairs.
I am prepared to come to Tonga and train a local resident to a certain level to enable the instruments to stay in reasonable playable condition. I am prepared to do this every year from May to October starting 2011, and donate my time at no charge. I can organise the appropriate spare parts and tools required.
Cafe Tropicana has generously offered to provide a small workshop and storage space in Vavau.
WHAT WE NEED
Some one in contact with all the bands (a tutor or conductor) to co-ordinate and find the suitable apprentice. Funds to cover expenses, basic tools, range of spare parts etc. Some body or organisation to fund raise or apply for grant aid from NZ Aid or Aus Aid etc.
END RESULT
A trained Tongan capable of repairing /servicing brass and woodwind instruments up to a basic level, who can pass on this knowledge on later. This could end up supplying work/income for the trainee long term. Valuable funds used (present and past) to purchase instruments will be better utilised as the instruments will
last longer . A brass instrument should last 10-20 years! IF maintained. Wasted money on freight can be saved. More school children can learn a musical instrument as more are made playable.

More than 25 years experience in the carpentry industry in NZ, Tonga, Maldives - we can do it all from furniture making to alterations to an entire house...
Furniture Making
Niu Pacific manufactures quality Palmwood furniture. Palmwood comes from farmed plantations of old coconut palms. The quality of Palmwood performs equal to or even better than conventional hardwoods. Palmwood is the most viable substitute for endangered hardwoods with Colour tones ranging from golden to near ebony, with dark brown flecks Coconut trees have no annual growth rings, rays, heartwood or branches, meaning that Palmwood is free from knots and other imperfections.
Carpentry
From alterations to a complete house - we have the professionalism and attention to detail to do the lot anywhere in Paradise
