Cran asked about the Oak whistle because a couple of years ago the plastic they were using for the mouthpieces was making people’s lips tingle and or numb. Quite a few people reported the problem and if I recall correctly Oak even acknowledged it and sent out replacement whistles.
That 250cc tumbler holds approximately a half pint, just to make it more visual. It’s my nose that goes numb more than my lips. dfernandez77, that’s some liver you got there. Geez, now you got me thinking about that Bushmill’s I have sitting by my whistles… And it’s a Friday night, too. Signing off now…

Extended periods of whistle playing has caused some numbness between my cheeks!
(Sorry, sometimes its hard not to respond)
Ah yes, the infamous poison oaks. If you sit here reading long enough, all of the collected wisdom from previous C&F posts will be paraded past you again. And that’s a good thing, often.
It twasn’t an Oak, and combination of Silkstone, Burke, Chieftain and Water Weasel NT . . . I think I may have accidentally jammed my upper lip, whilst playing and didn’t notice until I felt I was losing power in my lip function
