Reed Making
I have been  making  reeds since My 2nd year of playing oboe ( about 1974 )  After being taught how to make  reeds,  My teacher said I was a natural she liked  my reeds so much she started to trade reeds  for oboe lessons.  They have gotten better over the years. And now with the new reed making equipment my reeds have be come even better and extremely consistent.
