 Pre-gouging demos...

Because I can't practice for 2 weeks (wisdom tooth came out last Friday), I will spend my time to gouge, shape and tie reeds. I'll put pictures and explanations on my blog.

There were big discussions here on pre-gouging during the summer --- I was surprised because it's a simple thing --- so I started with that. My wife took such good pictures that I made simple animations with them.

I hope this proves useful and interesting.

This is damn good stuff that u are putting up.....as usual, I am running into problems with the video.

I talked about getting into gouging over the summer, but hadnt the time to investigate further........perhaps, now is a good time to re-visit.

You must have had those impacted wisdom tooth/teeth, I hope u didnt have ALL 4 removed at the same time......that will take time to heal !

Thanks for the compliments! [smile] My wife is becoming a really good photographer - that helps with the explanatory content. She wants to get a special lens to help getting pictures of backlit reeds.

My tooth was not impacted at all - THANK GOD! But (only) one tooth had started to rot (because it was a bit covered with gum) and got chipped. Not worth saving. Because it was almost fully exposed the operation went smoothly.

Now I'm only really sad about not playing, because things were starting to go so well!

Best of luck accessing stuff.
