[Bell Historians] Re: Wandering carillon

[Roderic Bickerton]

Mix and resultant metallic properties must be researched and available.
It should not be that difficult to relate that to changes in resonant
frequencies and the Q factor of the various resonances.
To much tin causes a brittle mix.

It would be interesting to have an idea how much variance is available
before tone or brittleness become are compromised.




Most definitely: a higher the copper content produces a much softer 
bell metal and a much duller toned bell.
