The Basic Oboe Reed Scrape in 7 minutes

  • This video shows how I start scraping my handmade oboe reeds. The start of the scraping process is very important because if you take too much cane off of any spot too soon, the reed will be unfixable in future stages of the reed making process.
    The basic scrape gets the reed started and going in a healthy way, without going too far anywhere. It also allows for some wiggle room so that the reed can be easily adjusted in the following days. The goal is not to make a perfect reed--it is to start it in such a way that it has the potential of stabilizing into a perfect reed after a few more sessions. I prioritize getting to this goal quickly and consistently.
    Disclaimer: This is my method that I’ve developed with the help of many teachers, books, and other resources. It may be unconventional, but it is what works for me. If you do it differently, I am happy to hear your thoughts in the comments. Please keep discussion civil and respectful.

      It's called Tunable, and I use it all day every day! Definitely worth the money.

    This was very helpful, and shows me I'm not doing anything fundamentally wrong.
    It also makes me feel like I should switch to a beveled edge.

    I use French scraping, but want to try this. What you know about the differences of those two?

    • @thereedwhisperer

      I've never made French-style reeds, but to my knowledge, we use very different gouges and shapes over here. Gouge is double radius 60-45 center to side, and the shape is Mack +. Of course you can try the scraping style on your own gouge and shape, but it might not be as easy. Best of luck!

    do you have advice on how to avoid scraping the spine off?

    • @thereedwhisperer

      Use a very sharp knife and keep your scrapes within the channels. So much of my reed making career, I used dull knives that I thought were sharp and wondered why my structure was so weak--this is why.

      AS a lousy but long time reed maker, I was always told never to scrape at all on the middle of the reed and that works for me (again I'm not good but this is one thing I more or less do well)@@thereedwhisperer
