Robin:

Reading your weblink in detail, gave me more insights on the French construction. Since, I have already begun thinning the tip and blending the heart, my next would be to try lengthening the back using baby steps, to form first the W and gradually forming the U. Right now, I dont have any distinct steps, I have blended those in already.

On American reads, if they are easy and closed when dry, soaking them will open it. On the French reed, seems like soaking and then pressing down on the reed will make them slightly easier. When it is dry, it is unblowable.

Yes, u are right, if I am busy with concerts and rehearsals, i shouldnt bother with the French reeds. During down time is when I get to do some research on things that I have always thot and wondered abt, so I take this chance to do the research to satisfy my curiosity.

As an engineer, I was doing R&D for the bulk of my career, although, I had stints in management which didnt quite appeal to me, but had to move up in the corporate food chain. So, like u, I like details about anything and everything. Even going to the extent of trying to make a French Marseille Boullaibaise or a French croissant flaky pastry, by going to the Cordon Bleu just to learn it.
