to tight corks

Author: brasstaps

New to clarinet , picked up a Boosey and Hawkes 2-20 was rebuilt and cleaned and new cork on all connections . Cork is greased every time played . Problem I am having is its so tight its very had to put together and take apart . Is this normal to some extent and get better in time ,or should the corks be sanded a bit. It is scary tight , to the point of possibly bending keys to get enough grip . All input greatly appreciated , thank you.
