I'm hoping to get a thread on the "keepers" section, or at least some info I can print off for reference. I'd like this thread to be about quick repairs you can do on the spot for common clarinet problems/breakdowns and what equipment should be kept in your clarinet case/bag so that you can function. Things like a lighter so you can remelt the glue when a pad falls out, a rubber band to tie to a pad that is supposed to stay closed but the spring broke (happened to me earlier this year), teflon tape for a broken or loose cork where the joints go together, etc. etc.
Can others put some basic info? I don't expect it to be too long, but I basically want something I can look to for a reference and be able to build a clarinet "emergency kit" for those breakdowns. Much like the reflective triangles, ratchet set, and jumper cables I have in my car, but probably a little smaller of a kit. So what are common problems that CAN be quickly fixed, and how can you fix them? Thanks.
