Mjfoboe - You are right. The blend could be more of a v-shape. I had trouble with making the tip too short at first and it shows. Backlit pictures were not coming out well. The reeds respond easily, play somewhat in tune. However, my ears are beginner ears so this may not be the case if it were heard by others. Fibrous cane? Not sure, but both scraped fine, not powdery nor too hairy.

Wes - Oh yes the reed thread. I am scared to trim the thread too far. My tying-off skills are a bit over the top. I am still learning. Hopefully the thread ends will be something I refine later.

The funny part is, after learning reed making over the winter I finally started live lessons a couple months ago.
