Very interesting Harvey... It takes the right tools and practice to make some of those designs the paint takes awhile to get used to <s>................................BB

Beautiful work. I can't wait to see a creative genius make the first low-rider sousaphone. 8)

So how would one go about getting this done either to a sousaphone or a mouthpiece? Those mp's are beautiful.

Which brands?

I guess the left one is a King. The other two look like having American style wraps.

The Mexican designs are really great. But the Americans aren’t bad either. Here is a guy who put a rotating decal on the bell flare of his tuba:

This video isn't worth watching, but READ THE COMMENTS !! :shock:
If I can find kids this DUMB, I’ll get rich !
I can't believe that I read all those threads :roll: As far as finding kids that dumb, make a visit to any of your local school districts. Thinking and using your brain is not taught to most kids these days. And don't even think about asking them to use basic logic, that would just be silly :evil:
