This was an extensive time consuming job.  I ended up installing eight pins to stabilize this massive crack.  The instrument was a very young Loree Royale oboe.

Occasionally, repair techs have to clean up from a previous repair.  In this case, there was some sloppy soldering done on a vintage satin silver saxophone.  Removing the last layer of solder tinning is tricky, but possible.
