So do I, but sometimes I don't catch it in time and the screw
works itself out far enough that the register mechanism on my
bass clarinet ceases to respond properly. It's a real problem.
Non-permanent Loctite might provide a solution if I can find
time to buy some. Or maybe the clear nail polish that some-
body else kindly suggested, although I don't know if it was
serious or not.
