Check with Instrument Innovations

They can probably fabricate one for you.

Be aware that a one-off, especially something like this which is well outside the standard dimensions for screw bell ring sets, will be expensive!! The stock Mike uses for screw ring sets is not large enough to accommodate that sort of diameter, so he would need to source material, which is usually purchased in the multiples of pounds.

There’s a Facebook page called something like “Frankentubas”. The people there have down all sorts of creative things with tubas and often have parts lying around for something or from something they used for parts. You might want to check in there and see if anybody either has something like that or knows where you might be able to get one

Hey guys thanks for the replies and ideas.. I reached out to Steven Shires.. He said he could custom make me one but the cost put it outside of my budget.. I will say that the price he gave me was quite reasonable as he explained it would take him at least a day to make.. I ended up going with a King 1130 Flugabone project instead.. Melanie Ditter over at RougeRepair https://rogue-repair.com is doing a screwbell and some other stuff on one for me.
