Throw your feet at a custom maker----Trust me I've tried, nobody here in the states 
has the gull to take a chance anymore.  My advice would be this, go to brass tech 
school and by a 17$ plumbers torch.  Start small with converting single f horns into 
hand horns then as you improve do more things to tweak doubles singles descants etc.  
This will give you a start and it is a pretty damn fun hobby.  You would be best to go 
across the pond to learn the ART of horn building- here in america I feel it is LESS 
than an artform because most makers have the almighty dollar in mind.  Understandably 
their families have to eat but they really don't leave much opportunity for us to 
hussle our way into the horn world,
