 Re: Barrel Stuck to Top Joint

Wrap the barrel in a cloth and hold it firmly against a table top or kitchen counter so the top joint is free, then with slight rocking motion, rock it gently to create a slight gap on one side. Then turn it around and rock it in the opposite direction. If you've got some thin pieces of plastic or wood, place them in the gap that's formed.

Keep rocking, turning over and wedging the gaps open with increasingly thicker wedges until the barrel comes off, then take it to a woodwind specialist repairer and have them shave down the tenon rings as that's what's causing the barrel to bind solid on the tenon - they only have to remove a tiny amount of wood from the tenon rings so it fits well and neither binds nor wobbles.
