I'm with Susan on this one.
I've no idea how long you've played, but your teacher may be 'holding out' on teaching you reed-making because it DOES come after fundamentals have been established. It is also a good idea (a GREAT idea) to learn how to adjust a reed before you start scraping them.

Having had a wonderful teacher who was also a superb reed-maker, I echo the fact that there is no substitute to working with a real live person when you learn to make reeds. I get confused watching reed-making videos or reading reed-making directions, and I've been making reeds since the 70s.

So if your teacher is just not in the habit of teaching reed-making, and you are advanced enough to learn, perhaps they could recommend someone else to learn from.
