Squashed Bell and in need of a good polish and tidy up. After some quality time with Helena it's looking much happier now!

Tuba Restoration
A well loved and well used Tuba in for a full restoration, time for some fun! After letting Helena and Natasha at it, this tuba is now looking brand spanking new and has a new lease on life!
Another old lovely instrument in for a full restoration. Natasha had to custom make several missing and broken parts, but she's back in top form again.
Another slightly used and abused instrument in for a full do-over. Natasha and Helena team up again for some more spectacularly tidy and shiny results!
This trumpet came in looking like it had lived under the sea! But lo and behold, after many hours of careful polishing and repair this instrument turned out better than we thought would be possible!

Cracked Bugle Bell Restoration
This old beauty was in dire straights, but Natasha cam up with a plan to replace the bell section, make a new rim, and cut out and transfer a plaque from the original logo to keep as much history as possible with the instrument.
