I agree -- pretty much.

It empowers a student for him* to learn to make/adjust his own reeds. I think such info SHOULD be passed along, as individual students show interest and readiness, but not to the general public.
(I don't think Mr Mack filmed any real close-ups of his 'secrets'.)

In any case, each student DOES need to tweak reed-production for their own most comfortable playing. My teacher let me fix my own reeds, he didn't adjust them for me. But he was a superb reedmaker and I learned almost as much from just listening to him play as I did from our few reed-making lessons.

*or 'her', of course
