Re: Shattered tenon- repairable?

<< Please note: Tenon "Ring" & Tenon "Cap" are used to describe a 1) protective or 2) cosmetic or 3) connnection balancing material placed around the end of a male tenon >>

On to the discussion @ hand ---

If the decision is made to GRAFT a Tenon, there should be no reason (normally) to employ & install a Tenon Cap. If the grafted Tenon were a poor fit & "rocked" when inserted & connected to the female - that is where & when a Tenon Cap should be/would be employed.

[ please note that there have been other discussions here & on The Klarinet List concerning "cures" for rocking. Notably some discussions, IMMSMR, involving the Buffet Prestige ]

These days, Tenon Caps are made out of various metal & are also made out of other materials such as Delrin. Carl Votaw, a well known repair tech & outsource for "jobbing", does them in Delrin. Also, Tenon Grafts can be accomplished in much the same way. Delrin & other man-made materials may be employed as well as Grenadilla & other woods.

IF a Tenon Cap were installed on a model which ordinarily did not employ a Tenon Cap - that would be a dead giveaway of a repair. I don't mention this in a manner that speaks to non-disclosure of the repair. RATHER, I mention it as a COSMETIC issue. IMO, the most professional repair is one that restores a clarinet to original OEM condition, where the ATTRIBUTES match. DSFDF
