don't think that it should be considered remarkable that steel bells should be
any different to bronze ones in their behaviour. After all you are only
substituting one material (brone) for another.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

size=2>Certainly German steel bells that I have seen have have decent
relationships between their partials, and they have a proper profile,
albeit continental, whereas NV bells seem to have a handbell thickness profile,
which is in accord with what Bill says.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<P>I Remarkably, steel bells also fit the model exactly; the analysis shows
<BR>that Naylor Vickers bells are far too thin and that had they been cast
<BR>to the same thickness as bronze bells they would have sounded like
them.<BR><BR></P></DIV></DIV><!-- ygrp-msg --><!-- Sponsor -->
