Just wrap it round, it sticks to itself somewhat. May need one or two turns
(on top of your cork). Just experiment it is easy to remove and cheap.

How do you cut the tape to fit or do you just wrap it slightly over the
other end of the tape?

Whatever your opinion on Teflon tape I would advise you to keep a roll in

your instrument case. A cork repair takes time and cannot be done during

performance.

Hi reedman, I'm sorry if it seemed like a personal attack. Several people

voiced the same opinion in favor of cork and my experience

with Teflon tape is limited to only a few days use. You may be correct. My

problem is that I'm always looking for the magic bullet, magic reed, magic

mouthpiece, etc. .
