I had the chance of making one in Oct 2021 following Javier's advices on his docs. This was a lot of fun. I printed the 3 required parts on my Prusa MK3S 3D printer. Perfect at the first attempt. I learned how to weld, not so difficult and I could make it also at first attempt. The MPXV7007DP component was indeed difficult to find at that time, but I could find one at Farnell for 18€ (and Digi-Key at 19€). It seems it's still difficult and expensive to find at the moment (but available at about 25€). The result is very nice. The sound also very good with most of the effects you can have on a real sax. And I love the geek look of this sax.
