The striving for consistency is never ending.

There so many variables .... and we try to make most of them constant.

Yet, cane varies ... and gouger blades become dull .... and instruments vary to some degree .... and of I didn't mention the weather.

So - I can control the shape of the cane, the gouge, the staple, my instrument selection ..... somewhat the batches of cane I buy but never individual cane characteristics.

Even over time ... ones reed making approach may drift at the margins and has to be pulled back on course.

I keep asking myself ---- why do I love the Oboe so much!

I think therefore I exist. NO

I am therefore I exist. No

I play the Oboe therefore I exist. Yes [wink]
