Brian... there are too many 'T's' in the URL prefix. Maybe this one will work:

This caught me off guard too. I don't see the point of this, though...

It's that word "handcraft"...

I would bet a Gino's pizza - or even a CSO Brass concert ticket on that thing being a CHEEEEEEP, CHEEEEEEEEEEP CHEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP POS made of fiberglass or plastic with the "brass" being limited to valve body and ferrules. I DON'T believe it is made of "sheet brass" and then painted white.

The PTUBA as a follow up to the pbone is on the horizon.
