It happens fairly often that one of our many regular lurkers pops in and posts a question or an idea.

I was very interested in the thread http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/read.html?f=1&i=475548&t=475548 that started when you first joined the BBoard about your being a microscopist and your offer, "I've been watching videos on youtube about how people adjust their reeds and I wondered if there is any part of the reed that it would be interesting for you all to see under huge magnification?"

What followed were several intriguing photos with explanations of reed structure at high magnification. I wonder, given your clarinet experiences since then (July 2019), if you would find new directions to explore in that area. What actually happens to the tip fibers over time? The "heart?" What, now that you've read more about various "break-in" methods, can you find under high magnification regarding the effects of some of the different approaches.

Most opinions about reed conditioning, breaking-in, even storage are based mainly on players' conjecture and whether or not the result seems satisfactory. But I'd love to know what actually, observably happens to the cane.
