These are the beginning steps in creating pistons for trumpets. I use monel for the piston body and 230 alloy red brass for liners. These are only the initial steps in piston creation.

Just bought trumpet in almost perfect condition. "Almost" because of missing valves;-) I'm handy and I have needed tools including small metal lathe so sharing of your valuable experience on your channel is "what was missing". Since here in Croatia I couldn't find monel source here could I use some other but still OK material for the piston body?

If you have access to stainless steel it would work well. You could also use nickel as a base material. It isn’t as durable as stainless or monel but it would work.

@@benchmarktrumpets9733 Thx a lot for your support. Meanwhile I found valves and button replacement kit on Ali for about 70$ with shipping. Stainless steel would be choice if chinese valves wouldn't fit.
