I was going to order a couple of cork lube from your website but I am in Canada. You have to make it easier or people won't order stuff. (unless I missed something) I was also going to order some roller lube too. You will get customers from all over the world if you set up something easy like amazon or ebay or many other online retailers.

Metal end caps are a dumb idea. I said the clarinet was a prototype. In the production model I asked they be omitted.

I've been using those red mechanics rags for years on all sorts of instruments. They come bundled for about $7, are absorbent & washable. They might be a bit coarse for shiny metal or certain finishes but I really don't find that worrisome as most of my stuff is well used and my philosophy is that instruments are tools. Which will also explain why I get odd looks when I make statements such as "Cars are like washing machines, they're just appliances to get you from point A to B"

Haha I was just about to ask you if you could cover this topic! Thanks :)

I have 2 clarinets, and they both have the same problem. Air escaping from the Eb/Ab key, making it a little bit harder to get the Bs, C#s etc. I have tried the cigarette paper under the pads on all the bottom keys, and all have a little pull on them except that Eb key, the paper glides in and out easily. All notes sound when pressed hard, but during a fast passage, sometimes they never sound. IS there a cure, is it the Spring?

cograts for your video! one question.how do i clean the bore of an old clarinet?is oiling then only way?

Please make video with subtitles in Portuguese. Thank you!
