Re: flute key extensions


 

Thank you Jen.

That sounds a great idea. Cork supplements will be easy to test taken from a wine bottle. I will be able to make different tests with different thickness.

David's solution seems a more durable solution and more professional, but it would require a luthier to solder a metal key, and you would need to test the thickness you need first.

For now I think I will need just a supplement in the B key in order to make it thicker and so the figer won't need to bend in a 90 degrees angle.

The key point in your solution will be the glue, strong enough to be durable but easy to clean enough when removed with no damage to the flute.

You mention contact cement, but I am not sure the meaning of it, I don't know which kind of cement.

Do you mean the king of contact glue that you use for glueing shoes, wich yo extend in both sides and let dry for a while before contacting both surfaces?

Thank you and thanks for the pdf. Regards Fernando
