Just wanted you to know, I’ve had my reed making kit for nearly 30 years. I posted it free hoping to find a good and deserving candidate to appreciate it. I had the pleasure of meeting a wonderful young lady at 13, motivated to learn. I sent it with her tonight after briefly reviewing the tools and basic considerations. I reviewed many videos and truly appreciated your approach and explanations and referred her to your tutorials. Thank you for bringing light to the beautiful art of reed making and also such a detailed and fantastic explanation/demonstration. 💖🙏

THANK YOU! My oboe teacher in high school charged an insane amount on top of oboe lessons to teach reed making and kept rescheduling despite paying in advance so I never actually got to learn how to make my own reeds. I'm going to attempt to self teach while watching your videos. Wish me luck!

Thanks so much for doing this series. Your instructions are very clear and the camera work is excellent. I also love the bit of humor included! LOL I'll be making my first reed soon and I'll be going by your excellent tutorials throughout the process. Wish me luck!

Thank you, Abby!

Instead of tying the thread to a C-Clamp, I was taught to stick the end of the thread into the staple, and than put the mandril in. This will fixate the thread and you can wrap the thread more easily. In the end after closing is with a noose or a knot, you can take the thread out of the staple and tie a knot from both ends on the thread.

How long should the cane soak for? Also thank you for making these videos! I’m just relearning how to wrap a blank to get better.

[@oscarwattsoboe]

Soak your cane in lukewarm water for 20 mins :-)

Can I use violin rosin instead of beeswax?

[@Kevin-vi9rj]

When checking the seal, can you blow instead of sucking?

[@somethingtocrowabout1408]

Tess: Some people do that but suction is more effective!
