This morning I threaded and cut off the post I started yesterday, then made a threaded jig to hold it out of an old tuba valve stem. Now, once I have the pivot screw hole drilled, I can polish and buff the whole thing without scouring away my fingerprints!
Later in the day I had a chance to talk to the machinist working on my tone hole facers, and he said they should be done tomorrow. Buoyed by that good news, I spent the evening corking keys.
