Looking for either one of these kits or something functionally similar:

Could be either two tenor or one bass. Anyone have anything similar lying around they aren't using?

Incidentally, if someone has a spare harmonic pillar I'd also 'settle' for that <span class="emoji" title=":wink:">😉</span>

A lot of techs I know make their own. It might be worth asking.

There is no DIY "edge bracing" kit.

This style of bracing involves removing any brace that contacts the bell flare & fabricating & installing a brace from the main bell braces to the valve tubing.
