A lot of people dreams of a lavish lifestyle of fortune and easy living. I would love to just be able to do stuff like this for a living instead of being miserable every time I leave for work
I didn't know you were a saxophone player! I came to the channel for the motorcycle material. I'm one of the rate ones that plays Fretted string, brass and woodwind instruments. I have to say, there's not much that is more fun than playing Herbie Hancock's Chameleon on either Bass Trombone or Bari Sax. It's straight up exhilarating!
Sir !! I LOVE your vids. ;). Cannot wait to see - or hear back about more saxophone works . . . I am trying to re-create an ol' YORK BARI . . . .with nothing more too work with than the bare body . . . ., no neck & yet I want / need to get it playable , circa 1925 Thanks for the inspiration !!!!!
Good to see you working on a proper sized saxophone. I was impressed to hear you playing the alto after restoration. Are you familiar with the Skatalites from Jamaica? IMHO everyone should play sax in a ska band.
Seeing it work trying to remove the dent I could build a polisher like the cars for cahpisteria I do not know if you explain me well Thank you and cheers you are very ingenious
If it had fell near the neck it would have a dent near there, maybe it was a small amount of force slowly pushing it causing stress in the metal causing it to bend to relieve stress? Maybe something else.
Also im not talking about a small dent its like a 30 to 50 pound thing if all that weight dropped at one spot it would pretty much snap the neck area in half and total it.
That face at 1:30 reminds me of a friend who had a trombone gig with his jazz band after a night out and about drinking and celebrating. :D
but it was jazz so it was ok he couldn't hit the notes :D
Your straightening jig is as inventive as it is impressive - well done.

Wow, that baritone saxophone with non-separating neck :)

Gotta love the crocs in the workshop 😂
Let's try this one more time without the repeated intro. :)

You're one cool dude.. Keep up the good work/videos!
Ferrees tools makes a straightener just like yours, but metal
Hey Mr Week. I like your new project and I’m gonna check it out. 🤘🏻
Awesome, thank you!
Great job and video. Does anyone know what a king like this should sell for in the before condition?
What you think about using jewelry silver cleaner. Ive use to have silver cleaner a while back many years ago. Love your video man
I've used it which you'll see in the next installment. It works fine.
Interesante 🛠⚒️⛏️🔨🔧🗜🎼🎷⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️
Hello, Are modern and vintage saxophone pads same sizes ? and have pads for buy every vintage saxophones ?
Nice work thanks ! Could you be more specific about the bath step ? What is the bath's composition and why doing that ? Thanks :)
Just some cleaner to help loosen up crud.
Wouldn't soldering a T post at the dent location and using a slide hammer have been easier?
Might have. I've been thinking about trying that in the future.
Aw, I wondered what happened to Dr. Sax! Such a shame.
thanks
