From what i've been noticing, cracks in wood seem to be develop most frequently in the jump trill key. Is there any reason why this is so? is this pure happenstance or the wood weaker because of the closeness of the trill key? or is it something else?

What do you do when there is a "possible" looking cracks? sand it down?

In my opinions, cracks are alot like cancer. It is preventable when you catch it early, but difficult to cure when the damage is done.

Our inventions are wont to be pretty toys, which distract our attention from serious things. they are but improved means to an unimproved end, an end which was already but too easy to arrive as railroads lead to Boston to New York
