 Re: Fitting A LH C# Key...

Neither of the feather keys are sprung and the adjusting screws will fine tune the amount of free play in them - they're freely floating between both points of contact between the linkages they actuate (just like the Eb/Bb feather keys on oboes and the Eb/B feather keys on d'amores, cors and oboes built to low B). The amount of travel in the C# touch is fairly minimal so there's no danger of catching the LH F key when using it.

It will be much easier to adapt this mechanism for d'amores and cors that only descend to low B, so that may be my next venture.
