I'm overhauling an elderly hard rubber clarinet. I noticed that the keywork, while being responsive, is rattling a bit. Closer examination revealed that the rods are a bit thin, the hinge tubes have play and rattle when the keys are operated fast.
I played with the thought of bending the rods ever so slightly but I feel that this is not the proper way to do it (my neck hair bristle at the mere thought). Thicker grease instead of oil? Ask my wife for a hair or to to pull in along with the rod? Insert a shim?
