Hi reedmakers all,
I've wondered through the years about the use of sandpaper to finish reeds.
Since I've got some numbness in my fingers (which can make them awkward at times) I thought I'd try an alternative: emory boards.
These are the 'orange'-colored cardboard things one uses to file one's fingernails. They are cheap, portable, and have a fairly fine 'grit'. I was surprised at how well they worked on the backs of my latest reeds.
I'll report further when I have outstanding results, but I thought I'd share a possible tool with those of you who use sandpaper.
