 Re: Cracked clarinet - repair or replace?

The annoying thing with this Buffet was getting the finish right after filling the holes where the pins went in - Buffet don't have a shiny polished finish, they have a scratchy finish, so after polishing where I'd papered up the body I used the edge of a piece of 500 grit and ran this up the joint to get the same scratchy effect, then hand ragging smoothed it out so it blended with the original finish. The trill toneholes were bushed with ebonite bushes to the same diameter as the bed places (11mm).

Has to be said I showed my colleagues the finished job and they couldn't detect where I'd pinned it.

I wanted to have an X-ray image of the joint after pinning to see how it all looks.
