<<After soaking, close the end of the staple with a finger and suck the air out of the reed. If it holds a vacuum for a while and opens with a 'pop', that's a good seal. >>

Terrific tip, Chris, and one that I have not heard/read elsewhere.

I've used this idea for upper-joint testing, but never thought to use it for the reed itself. Brilliant!
