Split in Sax Inner Bottom Bow

This saxophone came in feeling awful, turns out there was a very big crack/split right on the inner section of the bottom bow! Helena custom made a small but vey strong patch to seal it up tight. That won't be leaking ever again!

Loose Oboe Tenon Insert

Had this guy come in with a tenon receiver insert that spun around whenever the instrument was assembled and disassembled. Natasha removed the receiver, cleaned it all up and re-glued it nice and snug, it's not moving for a long time!
