 I just watched the video....I probably won't be adopting the method.
 
 Advantages:
 - Allows you to take a well-made reed with the right opening but out of tune and replace it on another staple to make it play in tune.
 - Possible vibrational aspects discussed on KGE website, http://shop.kge-doublereeds.com/
 
 Disadvantages:
 - Takes longer to assemble blank reed than with traditional thread.
 - More delicate and looks like the cane can more easily shift around on the staple, especially while scraping.
 - More expensive to make. Ligatures add $.60 per reed, and you need sealing tape as well. Ligatures are not reusable.
 - Greater quantity of staples of different lengths required to keep in stock in order to make changes.
