As much as I like things that are homemade, (cookies for example) This thing just looks a little too "homemade" for my tastes. Could have some decent valves, and maybe other uses for the bell. Not a looker!!!!http://cgi.ebay.com/Homemade-4-valve-CC ... 3368ee1634

Just 3 hours and 33 minutes to go. It even comes with a special fingering and slide push pulling chart! Hurry Hurry! Hurry!

You could buy it, send the bell 'n' bow to Sam Gnagey to make into a horn and toss the rest!

There must be more to it than soldering it on but, like King did, the bell could go on a 2340/1 body to make a 'modern' 2340/1.

I do like the engraving on those old Conn bells!

Oh man! I forgot to bid on this thing, it went for around a couple C notes! I coulda maybe used the valve section and parted out the rest. ( or whatever )
