Hand Cutting Key Corks

Key corks on musical wind instruments are used to silence the metal keys to avoid clicking noises as well as set specific key opening heights. On certain keys we use thicker corks so the keys remain light weight, and this is where every technician gets to show off their craftsmanship.
What do your large key corks look like? Share pics in the comments!
