Bass Trombone Restoration Project #9: Soldering the Handslide

[@Epulor1]

As an amateur trombonist, I am flabbergasted by the complexity of such a seemingly simple mechanism as a trombone slide. Thank you. 😎

Great work ... I think a lot of what I didn't know about positioning the trombone slide correctly today is half of what I know. I'm sorry I could not come to your workplace and learn. But I have used these lessons of yours to the best of my ability and have had successful results so far. Thank you for making this video of yours a great help.

You should make a video about using your measuring tools

Very cool vídeos. Watching from Brazil.

If you look at the radius on that final brace, it doesn't look as if it's been corrected... I mean, that it looks skewed on the right hand side

Can you move the solder around with the heat of the torch?

[@patoni860]

The curved piece on the end could have you check 2 measure that from the other end and just using your two drumsticks... Like you showed me.. Put it on the granite slab and then use the drumsticks to check that piece... Because you checked all the other pieces but that one piece that connects both of the tubes the curved piece, you didn't put that one on the granite slab like you did the other ones...

G I got a bass trombone 62H Conn that needs Attention. I'm in Rotterdam NY. How long usually does take

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

Most repairs take about a week.

When this project is done, where will it be for sale? And will it be able to be shipped?

[@TheBrassandWoodwindShop]

Yes, I can ship it. I am not sure where it will be for sale. My wife does most of the stuff that needs to be done on the computer.
