Subj: Re: Clarinet key re-assembly order?
Make sure you note any variations from standard. I have a Conn where the link from the thumb ring goes over rather than under the trill keys -- that changes the order. Try to avoid the need to wedge a key

Perhaps the rod screw is loose inside the key tube, so you need to have the tube "swedged" (compressed around the rod) to reduce rocking of the key on its rod screw, which is one of the most com

For some keys, which have cylindrical pivot screws, those holes go very deep. They may need a lot of Teflon, which may then be somewhat springy. BTW: 1. A test for Mazak key metal.... Cut a very small sliver

This is a "quick-fix" on instruments we don't want to go to the time/expense of a complete re-build of the key. A rebuild requires silver soldering an extension to the end(s) and re-fitting. In your situation I don't t

My figure includes tools for doing common mechanical work like straightening screws, swedging keys, bending keys, and installing springs (just a good hammar and anvil is about $40).

That depends on what way exactly the key is loose. If it is end play and you need to lengthen the key, you can solder a thin short rod and drill the hole from the other side. Another possibility that I found works very go
