i really do have so much affection for my reedmaking students

especially when they send me videos that were shot in portrait but play back in landscape

[gaybox]

made 2 really good reeds today ms. blue and pink and ms. red. i think bluenpink is recital meterial but im still keeping ms red in the running because its also a really good reed. yellow is decent aswell it needs like one more working on it but i think it has potential to at least be a good rehearsal reed. and then the pink/purple and the blue i just tied off today they might be for opera later this month if they turn out nice

New Years Resolutions

Flute: Your year is now monochromatic! Congratulations. Pick a color, or spin a wheel to spice it up. You can only wear, eat, and touch things of that color! Go on, you've earned that pink Mendini Flute.

Oboe: You have entered your soothsayer era. You now exclusively speak in rhymes and riddles. Buy a robe and grow out your hair to really commit to the bit. Drape your reedmaking supplies conspicuously around yourself for that extra bit of authenticity.

Clarinet: Start applying to reality TV shows - really insist on making the clarinet your entire personality. The Bachelor/ette would be a good place to start, particularly if you stand up the last person standing for your instrument - but I'm not telling you how to live your life.

Bassoon: World's largest ball of twine? Boring. Time to start the world's largest ball of reed thread. Sell tickets under the table and use it to fund your ridiculously expensive hobby.

Saxophone: It's time to reinvent yourself. Who will you be? What will you become? Mortuary Scientist? Squirrel Whisperer? Nurse? What will you sacrifice? Burn all of your material possessions and start over. Give your name to the fae. No takesies-backsies.

Trumpet: It's time to start that gym membership you've been thinking about. Not because there's anything wrong with your body - no. Your body is perfect. You're perfect, you silly creature. But everyone's past catches up to them if they don't stop running from it, so you'd better be ready.

Horn: Learn a new language, to appease the old, green owl god. Select the most obscure one you can find. The weight of its continued existence now rests in your hands. This is your burden to carry for having superior aural skills.

Trombone: Start a cult. What could possibly go wrong?

Euph/Baritone/Tuba: Turn the world upside down and break the status quo. Write a new piece of music, giving all of the glory to the low brass and reeds for once. The flutes get the bass line. Make every rhythm needlessly complicated for no reason, and demand that the editor not fix it. It wasn't a mistake. Make the others suffered as you have.

Percussion: Collect every pencil left on the floor after rehearsal. If your group is good about that, resort to theft. They'll never expect it from you. Create a new..." addition" to the percussion family with your collection. Interpret that as you see fit.

Violin: Join a new niche hobby. But only something that you're good at right away, or it won't be fun. The smaller the hobby, the more likely you are to claw your way to the top. Success at all costs.

Viola: Create short-form videos on the internet in which you take on the persona of an entirely new person who time-travels and does not play the viola. Build a following. Once achieved, pull the rug out from under everyone and tell them you were a violist all along.

Cello: You broke an item when you were a small child. You might not remember what it was - but the ghosts do. They've been biding their time, waiting to exact their revenge. You'd better study up and figure out how to best prepare for that.

Double Bass: Saving money will be critical for you this year. Big instrument = big debt. Look on the bright side, gigs are often plentiful for someone of your caliber, and if the mob comes for you, you'll probably fit in the case...

Piano: You should really get outside more, you've been looking a little pale lately and the vampire rumors have started. If those rumors are true and the outside is indeed dangerous, then bring the outside in with a few new plants at the windows.

Doublereed teachers and students: Let me know if you are interested in a back to school care package! I made these posters to be funny a while ago but I ordered way too many of them! DM me if you'd like me to mail you a few! You're gonna want one on your studio door, one in your reed room, one on your fridge and one taped to your bathroom mirror at the bare minimum!!!

Yes, I collect shot glasses, which is a fact that people who know me would find quite ironic. But they have their use in reedmaking.

[ioboesess]

I want to make reeds today but I don’t have a smooth flat clear surface and I’m Hecking Picky about how I make reeds.

Also my whetstone is not ceramic and I don’t know what to do with it but water just soaks into it (the instructions literally said “soak it in a tub of water” but that doesn’t work it still comes out pretty much dry)

[sigmastolen]

i don't think i've made a reed i liked in like. three years. so i keep trying to play everything on the one same reed i did actually like, and even though it's kind of worked so far bc i am just not playing that much, it's obviously uh, not sustainable, since reeds are made of organic material that breaks down as you use it, right, so it's certainly past its peak and sometime soon will inevitably fail completely and i truly don't know what i will do when that happens :)

$1/piece!!! Gouged, shaped and scored oboe cane and GSP bassoon cane Factory Seconds!

Due to a frenzy of recent stockpiling in preparation for traveling to GPBC, we have a plethora of factory seconds available! They are on sale for $1 per piece while supplies last. They are all structurally sound and usable pieces of cane. They may have some discoloration or frayed bark. They are a mix of random shapes.

Oboe factory seconds come in packs of 60, bassoon factory seconds come in packs of 10. Great for learning how to make reeds, practicing reedmaking, teaching reedmaking and just general reedmaking gambling!
