I decided to keep the parts. For some future projects I want to get into. So they are not for sale.

Bump! For pictures and important updates!.

Any model? What about Wisemann 900? (B&S PT-6 copy)

These MAW valves will fit some Wisemanns, but not all. These were not made with consistent valve and casing diameters, so some drop in some are too loose.

They can be nickel plated to make them larger. Martin Wilk has a guy that does a great job at it.

They will fit the Wisemann Pt-6 copy as well. I used them on a large valve block 2165. So I doubt they would be loose on the wisemann

It depends on the vintage of the Wisemann. There were 3 Wisemanns where I did my Master's and MAW valves were loose in 2 of them (they were from the last batch or two to come through MackBrass) but fit perfectly in one of them (it was from the first couple of batches). So, its possible they will fit, but there is no guarantee, though they can always be played up to fit if they are loose.

Do these fit the Big Mouth Brass 6/4 tubas? I have been toying with the idea seeing if these would work in the horn however I do not know if they will fit it properly.

Does this include anything for valve alignment?

Yes, I can throw in the PVAK that I used on it as well.

Bump!! Still for sale. Got a lot of interest so far.

No. Apparently Martin and Dick talked about it in passing but it never happened. You could probably send Martin your whole tuba for several months and he could make it happen.

Bump!!!!!

Are these still for sale?
