Full Size Working Trumpet

pinshape

After the scaled down version (see my designs), here is the real thing. A full-sized trumpet. Dimensions are modeled from my 50+ years old Selmer which sounds very good indeed. Placement of the third valve slide has been altered for simplification purposes only. Includes a monette style mouthpiece, also compatible with standard trumpet mouthpieces. Valves work perfectly and valve routes are modeled realistically, ensuring this instrument produces great sounds. All valve slides move in addition to bellbow and main tuning slide, allowing the player to tune the instrument if it's out of tune. Modeling time: 4 days. I welcome any comments you may have. I've printed the mouthpiece part to test its functionality. This is the first trial with the unsanded rough piece, right out of the 3D printer.
