Style
Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Details:
I got a somewhat smashed Holton 345 a while back, but the brass was in good shape. Hearing about common assembly flaws with this model, I took it all apart and then put it back together with different valves, a different leadpipe and different bracing that make it look much more like the Chicago York CC copies.

Could you take a few more vanity shots of this horn? Sounds like a cool project and I can't see much from that first picture.

Most of the posters are overloaded with dopamine that they can squeak out are singular words
I would put a good signature here, but i dont have one, so this will make do.

If at first you don't succeed, skydiving's probably not for you.
