NEW NEWS!

M/K Drawing and Bending has acquired Millard Machine in Elkhorn, WI.  We now have full machine shop capabilities.  Millard Machine has been involved with the instrument manufacturing industry since 1947.  Millard has made everything from braces, receivers, balusters, valves, ferrules and more. Millard Machine also has capabilities to make mandrels and tooling for manufacturing processes.  If you are a manufacturer, dealer, or repair shop interested in any CNC turned products, please contact us to discuss your need.

We are pleased to announce 2 new lines of trumpets:

A .470 bore Jazz Tribute and the Spencer UK line of Bb and C trumpets; more information on these models are available on the New Items page.

If you’re a repair shop, dealer, or small custom manufacturer, we can help you as well. We offer slide tubes for Bach and Yamaha trumpets (several bore sizes) as well as French horn tubing for Conn and Holton models.

We produce component parts for some of the most upscale instruments in the music industry. If you’re a small custom shop or a manufacturer, don’t hesitate to give us a call. We’ve done custom private label work since 1990 and would be glad to meet your needs as well.
