Thank you for your response. The humidifier box was a recommendation from the shop I dropped it off for service after the trouble started. It was playing beautifully until January. I do not play, but my son can, fairly well. He needed something to use. The box was simply a plastic container with a small tray of water. I do hope I haven’t damaged it, it’s only the bell ring that loosens when left out, and it only was left out one time before noticing. I will take it back to the guy who serviced it the first time. The guy who told me to make the humidifier was a different shop than I normally use. He’s been using the cheap plastic one in school since January.
The B12 was always just an experiment for me to see if it was something I could fix. I was fairly happy with getting as far as I did. It was in sad shape when I got it. I took it apart repadded it, and reassembled it, and I was very close, with the exception of this one key. The other keys are air tight, I checked with a light and the paper method. It was a project, the reason this is even considered at this time is because he needs an instrument.
The first instrument is a cheap plastic. Brand name Medini. It was what I purchased before I knew my son would commit. It’s the reason I don’t want to spend money on it, but it was decent, so if that’s my best option, so be it.
I did try the other barrels and they all fit the same way. Just shy of full connection to the upper joint. I don’t see the cork once it’s fitted, only ABS resin. Its a tight fit, and it will play, but I know something is wrong here.
Thank you all for your responses. I have gotten quite the education over the years .
