The weakest area of any plastic oboe (and clarinet) or plastic or composite top joint is the middle tenon, so avoid any lateral pressure while assembled and use a heavy, sturdy stand to avoid them falling over. Never lay a plastic oboe on a plastic chair (or any oboe on any chair for that matter) where it's only supported at either end.

Don't have sword fights with them either.

The opinions I express are my own.
