Just wondering if anyone is familiar with this project. Karel of Adolphe Sax & cie has been collecting artillery shells to make saxophones from.

BTW, his current saxophones are great, among the best I've ever played. There was one there in his display I wanted to buy but it was one he didn't want to let go of...
