Hi Ben - I assumed that you'd already taken care of this before now. The majority of wooden clarinets take 1/16" cork for tenons. Metal ones often use 1/32" thickness. If you should ever need to do this again, cut the strip that you'll need from 1/32" cork, then take a small object like a jeweler's peen hammer and tap the inside surface lightly and repeatedly all over. Any smooth, round, metal object will do--just have it on a hard surface and tap it repeatedly on the side that will be glued down. This not only gives the cork more flexibility, it gives it a tendency to curve in the right direction.

As for being patient while the glue dries...YEP! I always try to make sure I have something else to do that will get me entirely away from the bench for 15-20 minutes, or so.
