Title: First successful trumpet.
Post by: tap.emtp on April 17, 2022, 08:53:26 AM
First successful trumpet. Drilling gave me a fit but with some help from guys on here I figured it out. Thanks (https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220417/775339e9079fd6ff82bdf7094c2003c1.jpg)

Amen gergg, haven't done much drilling on the lathe so that was the tough part. Now to fine tune my internals.

Runs pretty good. Still working out my internals. So not so impressed with Deleon, does the other options work just as well? Like Buffalo horn or micarta? Also any material I'm missing?

Delrin is the easiest mat. there is to make a good mouth piece.

Sound and turning ease for me too. If you sand and polish properly it looks great as well.
