Re: Bridge key - corking/adjustment question

you know, an adjusting screw on the linkage is really quite a practical idea, and it shouldn't really be so hard to find a way to make it NOT make noise or tear up whatever it's going to connect with....
as for the adjusting screw on the A/G# key... well, i actually put a small section of Bay mouthpiece pad ("thin black" cut to size) under this on my A clarinet, and have had no problems whatsoever in the years/hours of playing since. i imagine that this material would connect quite efficiently with a screw at the linkage- esp if the end of the screw were to be flattened out and the edges rounded off.
Now, excuse me, but if i had a screw there i imagine myself smart enough to adjust it correctly.
to quote from Arthur Ransome... "better drowned than duffers, if not duffers, won't drown"
eh?
