Week 2, Day One

Disassembly and reassembly of the clarinet is becoming easier each time I run through the process.  I can take the instrument apart and put it back together in about 16 minutes.  Hopefully this time will continue to drop as I become more accustomed to dealing with pivot screws!

This week began with determining with levers and key contribute to the venting and closing of a key.  We determined the two regulations on the clarinet, and I was able to site the two necessary lost motion points on the clarinet as well as the additional wanted lost motion in two points.

Finally, using a craytex wheel on the bench motor, I eliminated the flash on my pad slicks to ensure I wouldn't tear or rip a pad when using the slick.
