No extra pieces

We checked and didn't find any extra screws, pads or arms laying around after Grandpa got the saxophone back together. After weeks of pieces sitting on the table and Grandpa scratching his head everything fell into place. This morning I took the re-padded sax down to the repair shop for fine tuning. The gentleman we had been dealing with behind the counter was excited to see that Grandpa got everything together. He also commented that he did a good job but he was delighted to find that we had an older Vito saxophone. He said it was in good shape for its age (due to the lack of anyone playing it, I guess) and took it to tune and make sure there were no leaks. Now Grandpa has to find someone that can teach an old dog new tricks and get a tune out of the sax. Grandmother
