Re: Making reeds by hand, without any fancy machines

On the other hand, some I have known who make their own reeds say that they have better results, more control and reeds that play better and last much longer.

I think the answer is that you have to figure out what is best for you. One added benefit from learning the process is that you will have a much better understanding of reeds and greater skill in working on them. That will be a big plus, whether you end up hand making your own reeds or using commercial reeds.
