Sasha,

Since you are a trombone players think of the clarinet in the same way.
For example, take an Edwards trombone, in which you can get a variety of bells, pipes, slides, etc.

The Bell has a flair but goes down to a common bore size. This is just like the clarinet bell.

Then the back section that further tapers to the slide section. The clarinet lower joint accomplishes this same type of taper.

So a clarinet fits together the same way. But of course the parts from the same make and model fit together as designed.

So the key is making sure each section first fits together as if it was made for each other. and hopefully each section is stamped with the model / maker on it to make it easier.
