Description
Batch Built FAQ

This tool is designed to re-round and re-size the open hole (French) chimney in flutes. Enlarging the chimney can be a helpful remedy when the open hole pad retainer (a.k.a. bushing or grommet) is loose at the depth of desirable insertion.
This is particularly important when deeper insertion over-compresses and distorts the pad.

Directions: With the pad removed from the key cup, insert the small end of the tool into the chimney with a slight twisting movement and slight pressure into the chimney. This will slightly expand the chimney to allow the grommet to catch. Use only slight pressure please. It is better to work on the chimney more than once rather than to over tighten the fit. The slight chimney expansion will not affect the playing of the flute.

Instructions

What is “Batch Built”?
Batch Built is a description we apply to our machined tools that are periodically made in batches.

Each time we make a new batch, the product’s design, function, specifications, and materials are reviewed with the design and production teams. We are constantly improving our tools and finding ways to make them more economically.

Although we work hard to ensure our essential tools, pads, parts and supplies are always available, Batch Built tools are not in stock at all times.

How can I order Batch Built tools?
If a Batch Built tool is out of stock it cannot be ordered, but you can enter your email address on the product page in the field “Email when stock available” and click “Notify Me”.

We don’t want to hold up orders that include Batch Built items if they cannot be delivered, particularly if those items are not yet on our production schedule and have no ETA.
