Thanks for sharing your 'secret recipe'. I know many will benefit.

I wonder how the density of cane affects these measurements...

If one has a gauge then one can make reeds faster and more consistently, I get that. So all power to you, professional reed-makers out there.

For myself, I approach the task like knitting a sweater, following instructions as to the number of rows etc, but also by the dimensions of the one you knit for (I hope the analogy works, because I don't knit!).

I've never been able to make reeds by measurement numbers, only by how they respond. Therefore, the style of playing, the instrument itself, and the density of cane come into play.
