I did realize after recording this video that I kept mentioning the wrong size. It is actually .6635” for the finished OD of the piston body after honing.
Ron, I actually posted and asked if you meant .6635 and not .635. I deleted it shortly after, thinking I did not want to insult you with such a comment. FYI.. your doing a great job, keep up the good work. -Bill
Excellent video. Could you suggest a method of plotting the piston ports from an existing instrument? I am a repairer in the UK and have an interesting project of my own that is missing a valve and the other two are beyond repair. I've always wanted to make a piston so your method would be the way to go for me so long as I can work out the dimensions. More videos would be great, always good to learn possible new techniques.
Mark, send me an email to benchmarktrumpet@gmail.com. I can give you the basics of mapping an existing piston so that you can potentially reproduce it.
@@benchmarktrumpets9733 Hi, I'm Jay from Transylvania. I work on brass instruments as well. May I send you an email for the exact same information, for mapping pistons to remake them, please?
Fascinating video. I love working with my hands, and all types of machining and craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing your methods with us!

Fascinating. I'm from another branch, violins, but the attention to detail is similar.
cheers from an instrumentmaker in Vienna, Scott
It's amazing. Great work. Thanks.
Beatiful work and thanks for sharing!
Thanks so much for that vidéo ! I was looking for that explanations so much ! It was really helpful
nice work

@@benchmarktrumpets9733 Thank you very much, Sir!
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 Brilhante
Poderia fazer um vídeo do gabarito que faz as furações
I do have that video on my list of things to do when I have the time. I will get to it though
Vou aguardar
Tell me which solder do you use?
The piston bodies are not soldered. They are brazed using silver wire.
