I think that sometimes craftsmen fail to realize the symphony of skills they bring to bear on musical instruments. Regarding Mr. Backun's post, access to a lathe is a bit different from possession of the skills necessary to use it to cut both an inside and outside thread to a post. From what I have seen, most clarinetists are not easily intimidated by technical difficulty, but to paraphrase Alexander Pope, a little lathe is a dangerous thing. For the sake of continued good music, and posts to this board, if you are determined to do it yourself, wear safety goggles, ditch the necktie and any loose clothing, and let the cutting tool do the work -- keep your fingers away from it when it is turning.
