This is what it looked like after I took everything apart. I have done a lot of dent work on the bell. Greg is fixing part of the goose-neck brace (see that story in another post). I am almost ready to refit parts and put the horn back together.
I had to totally rebuild the inner hand-slide assembly. The top left show the exchange of the threads off of the original cork barrel on to the new cork barrel. I had to replace the upper inner slide tube, but I wanted to save the venturi, so I removed it (top right). I soldered the tube back in, and the soldered the spanner brace together.
I also rebuild most of the trombone body too.
I was excited to see it all in one piece!
