All the zippers are broken. The receivers are small shank.
The no-markings mouthpieces look like 12C mouthpieces.
I thought there were only four. Sadly, there are six.
If the other five take the same amount of time as the first one did all by itself, I guess it'll be okay.
That first one was a hot mess.

Re: jimbo marching euphoniums
There were five of them and one compensating jimbo euphonium.
Two of the marching ones were really trashed and the others were pretty easy. 100% of their third valve slides were seized and the bracing is token. Some of the third valve slide braces were broken due to people trying to get them out the stupid way, but the ones that weren't broken I managed to keep unbroken while getting the slides out.
Two of the bells featured creases which could have easily become compound creases, but I got them flattened out smooth enough.
Hey. I didn't break 'em.
I'm texting the band director letting him know that he needs six three and a half foot long (when pulled tight) bungees for these cases.
I can breathe a little easier, because I think as of today I have all of the stuff that they're going to actually need for band camp done, and now all that's left are some misc. Bach Strad.
trombones that are screwed up a little bit and four double French horns.
