I handed in my clarinet today!!!! It was a lot of work, but it plays great now!!!!
We started learning about flutes this week. We started by disassembling and reassembling them. Yesterday we learned about regulation of the flute. The flute has five regulations. We regulated our methods flutes, and then we learned how to get rid of lost motion in the keys.
Today we made a valve stem on the lathe. We applied all the things we have learned about lathe work thus far into making them. We had to face the ends, make it a specific length, face part of it to a smaller diameter, and drill, tap, and die threads on the ends. Later we will buff and lacquer them.
