 The Oboe BBoard

I have a slotted machine screw screwed into the top of a narrow board which is C-clamped to my reed table; threads of the screw extend all the way up to the underside of the slotted head. The threads of the screw anchor the thread/string better than the partially smooth shank, IMHO. Far more secure than the knot on the shoe, doorknob, cup hook or chair back: as no slippage, or worse, the knot coming completely undone while tying.
I wonder about the tightness of the wrap using the reed winder. Potential for leaks? Painting with the acrylic glop (Kerry W's video?) Beeswax seems more user friendly to me. A lot to pay also (one could buy a shaper tip or a passel of tube cane for the same price…$185 plus s/h)
My 2¢ FWIW
Best,
john
