Clarinet

The clarinet is made by many difficult steps. First, the makers drill holes in the base of the clarinet for the tone hole keys. Next, the keys are made from silver using a modern method. The modern method is called die-casting, which means molten alloy is forced under pressure into the steel and it dies. When putting the keys onto the clarinet the keys are mounted on small pillars called posts. The keys are screwed into the posts with stainless steel hinge rods. The ends of the clarinet body are lined with corks and wax so the body parts will be able to fit together. To make a clarinet it takes a long time and is long hard process.
