So cool! Have you planned how you're going to do the fifth valve paddle assembly, or do those things tend to get solved later on in the project?

This looks like a really cool project!!!
How did you manage to make that cross-hatch pattern on the valve buttons? That's really slick....

I don't think I've ever seen a top action CC, even in a BBb --> CC conversion.

At least it's in CC so all the tuba players watching you can be sure it's a professhnul instrument.

Whatever it is, in your hands, I'm certain it will turn out excellent.
