i should have explained the reed wizard in the video, but I just wanted to put a video up to show how the process works. it basically scrapes the bottom right and left (when you move the reed to the other side) without taking too much wood off. the blades aren't like sandpaper and leave little "cut" marks or grooves to take some, not all the wood off, which is basically why the reed wizard is that awesome. sandpaper takes too much and either hits the heart of the wood, or isn't an even sand. thus mini grooves = better.

Our inventions are wont to be pretty toys, which distract our attention from serious things. they are but improved means to an unimproved end, an end which was already but too easy to arrive as railroads lead to Boston to New York
