I posted on SOTW but thoguht to post here too. There are a few photos of the entire instrument there if anyone wants to see those.
Anyway, I recently repaired two Buffet basset horns. One of them had a not-that-tiny hole right through the wood. It looked like the tone hole cutter just got too low and being so close to the middle socket, it exactly got to it and had a hole there. When playing it was pretty obvious there was a problem (why it was brought) so a big miss in the factory...
