 To bore oil ?...Or not to bore oil ?...That is the question .
Author: Julian ibiza

This is the question that the " Alternative bore oils" thread seemed to end up sliding into, in what I feel somewhat inclined to describe as a " theological debate".
Given that the moisture expansion of the wood surrounding the bore is behind some of the most severe maladies a clarinet can have , from cracking to performance losses broadly termed " blow-out". I for one would like to have this matter better resolved from the angle of physics , science and solid facts .
Surely this deserves more than a " Is the world round...or flat ?" sort of standoff now that we find ourselves in 2023.

To try to start things off on what I feel is the right track, I would like to offer this study conducted by the Conservation Analytical Laboratory of the Smithsonian Institute in 1982 , entitled " The effect of moisture on the performance of woodwind instruments ".

Aside from detailing and explaining the damages from moisture to bore and tenons in no uncertain terms . In the introduction they refer to the " historic evidence about the original surface treatment" ( of very old flutes bores) , which suggests that treating bores against moisture absorption is a practice with a longstanding history .
