Concerning Aleks question--
As to statements that the hole is generally too big for this to work, one
must check the size of the hole before judging the size without seeing it.
Disassemble the lever style key and look at the size of the hole. Compare it to

Take a piece of brass or nickel silver rod and grind a taper on it so it
forms a plug in the hole. Cut the plug so it is about 1/16" long Make sure

off the tube around both sides of the hole with strips of w

Hello Aleks,
Yes, it is possible to change the type of water key from the lever type to
the Amado type.
The success of this repair depends on the size of the hole drilled for the
nipple of the lever type key.
There has to be enough surface for the amado key to be well soldered on for
the convers
Hi Alex,
That wouldn't be a problem although I don't see much advantage in it. We
would probably use a low-temp silver solder since you might not have much
surface to work with.

It IS possible. I've had it done to several instruments (low brass) by

be obvious. One doesn't just up bow or down bow, one practices bowing
in both directions.
