Re: Cork Grease Substitute

After leaving the my R13 assembled overnight (I swabbed it out after the last practice session) the corks seem to have compressed a bit allowing me to disassemble the horn with much less effort. The bell cork is still a bit tight but not as tight as it was. I'm just hoping the wood on the tenon is not expanded.

I have never left the instrument assembled after playing it so the corks have always had room (and time) to expand. Maybe the extra compression time will solve the problem I was having.

I got some cheap chap stick for when I need it.
