Kenny,
sorry for the delay mate, too busy buggerising around here with mpcs, gigs and generally causing a disturbance in some way, manner or form.
Drop me a line directly from the website if you have any specific questions. The drilled reeds are still doing it for me, Plasticover 3 1/2 drilled with 130 tip mpcs is floating my boat at the current time. It may be something different in a couple of months time.

hey bootman ! did you hear about scientific reeds ? :wink:

Your drilling technic remember those reeds with a triangular hole...

I had some of them (found in a old gig bag )

were good reeds but didn't like water...

Your technic seems interesting, I was diong the same reeds, but with a blade... :roll:

I have a whole bunch of Scientific reeds, some Charpens etc.... It is just as easy to drill a standard reed, it takes 5 minutes to do the entire box once the jig is set up.......
