 Reed Blanks

I am curious if anyone knows of any place where you can purchase blanks for making reeds in which you have some control over what you receive. In other words, all I can find is blanks that are a pre-set dimension and no idea of the cane quality or what has been done to it, if anything, to cure the cane.

For those people who want to make their own reeds but don't want to make the blanks, is this something that you have any interest in?

I know there has probably been much discussion on this site about the topic of making reeds from blanks or tubes so I don't really want to re-hash that, but am curious about how many more people would attempt to make reeds if you could purchase blanks with your own specs?

I have always made my reeds from tubes for the reason of being able to control every aspect of the process, but I am curious if anyone has found such a service?

(Disclaimer - I sell Gonzalez Reeds but not reed blanks)
IMHO very good, well aged, good quality reed blanks can be obtained from Davie Cane - a BB sponsor.
