Many people, in their hour of need, have been known to use an elastic band! "Engineuity is the master of too many hands making moss stick to rolling cooks!" It's one of my favourite sayings😵

lol yes amanda told me to use a elastic band 🙂 but would rather any type of lig if possible.

String's better than lazzy bands. Failing that, a Rovner.

Does anyone have a rovner for sale???

I had problems finding a lig to fit a vintage piece, so I bought one of these

Pulled it to pieces and reassembled it to fit.

If you measure the circumference of your mpiece and have a trawl through ebay there are lots of inexpensive, practical solutions. There's lots of very expensive ones too. You can find a chest of drawers while you're on there to store your collection of cheap ligatures. Every player should have one.
