    Smart Charles, just knock up a model like you
    do...between jobs. Are you gona post the model? So the question is how are the
    majority of these instruments constructed? That shot is straight out of IV
    right.

    I
    just posted a Trumpet to CF.  This thread caught my interest so I pulled
    the old trumpet out to see if I could model it.  Anyone up for modeling a

    In the process, I found a bug in my Save to JPEG tool.

    Are you asking how they are constructed or how to
    model them in Inventor?  I think others have been telling you how they are
    constructed.  The reason you cannot unfold the shape to a flat pattern, it
    that there is no flat pattern that can be bent to form those shapes.  They
    require stretching or deforming the material or else the joining of multiple
    pieces.  You can model part of the shape with a revolve of a curved
    profile, but you cannot expect to be able to create a flat pattern of
    it.

    I have seen them spun from a flat disc and are formed around a mandrel. I
    saw a program in last month's Cadalyst Magazine that was for calculating
    blanks for stampings. Spinning is a similar process. Maybe that program
    would do it.

    What size mouthpiece is that?  That's
    certainly not the Schilke 7C that came with the trumpet!

     

    Throw a third-valve kicker on it and it's a
    beaut!

    It was closing on midnight so I didn't measure the mouth piece or add
    the drain valve or some of the bits which hold it together or the music
    holder mount. I also thought about adding the logo which is a bunch of
    dots which reads Locker Music Exchange. My wife is suggesting I have it
    fixed and get our kid playing it. Doh!

    In answer to one of the other questions, yes, it was captured from
    Inventor with my JPEG tool which is how I happened to find the bug in it.

    How did you get the grid floor? Or do you have grids showing? I never use
    them so I'm not familiar with what they look like in an assembly.
