Mummy to Reed Blank

In the following video I will be making a reed MUMMY into a reed BLANK with the bevel and three(3) wires.

There are many techniques one can use in beveling, as well as wire placement. This video is a general guide with basic information.

Here I am using Medir Cane, Rieger 0.06mm wire, and Nexus Woodwinds mandrel and pliers.

Wire placements as follows:

1st wire 2mm from collar

2nd wire 8mm from 1st wire

3rd wire 6mm from butt of reed
