Thanks for the advice Jeff.

I've discovered a few things.

First I've been getting super thin tip rails. I've solved this by rotating the guide less as I get to the tip.

Also I've been getting thick tips. I've solved this by pressing harder just right when I get to the tip area. It is possible to overdo this a ruin the tip but it seems to be the best solution I've found. I usual take the reed off, measure it and redo the tip if need be.

Dragging the guide striaght at different angles seems to work better than wiggling it too much as you pull.

I didn't think technique would matter too much with the dual but it seems it does.

any thought on these observations?

Best,

Chris
