Thanks - it was actually easier to work on than other woodwind restoration project I've attemped since the keywork is so simple and (fortunately) everything was in pretty good condition.

I'm not sure how much of the intonation issues are due to the curve or not. I suspect a lot of it is just the result of it being an Albert system, but as it's the only Albert clarinet I've played, I'm not sure.

As i've gotten used to it I've learned to compensate for the intonation irregularities to a large degree, anyway. It's certainly fun to play!
