Reed plaque (white) with finishing cloth set
Reed plaque (white) with finishing cloth set
A good, inexpensive reed plaque is hard to find. Especially one that is unbreakable, non-toxic, food grade, HDPE polyethylene. (And if you wanted to cut really small vegetables on this with a really, really, small knife, you could do that, because this is the same material they make cutting boards from.)
In addition, we've got a starter set of 3M micro-fine non-woven reed sanding + polishing cloth. The coarsest of the sheets is 600 grit (30 micron), and it goes all the way down to 14,000 grit (1 micron). Why so fine? Well, I've found that once you've got a great reed, polishing it will keep it in top condition longer! If your reed is feeling a bit meh, polishing it may bring it back to life.
Here's what you get:
- One food-grade plaque: 4" long x 1" wide x 1/4" thick (10 cm x 2.5 cm x .6 cm)
- Six pieces of non-woven polishing cloth, about 4"x4" (10cm x 10cm), one each in 30-, 15-, 9-, 6-, 3-, 2-, and 1-micron. You can fold each cloth into quarters, or cut them into smaller pieces. (I tend to fold them.)

It is really useful and the tutorial video helped a lot!
These 3MM papers are useful for smoothing out rough spots in reeds and helping to reverse the water logging of new reeds. I use them all the time.
I ordered the Reed plaque and finishing cloths. These are also really helpful for students to safely and patiently learn to adjust reeds. The paraffin teeth cushion is a convenient way to use this method if you have biting discomfort.
Great set for tuning reeds. Good selections fine to coarse, all reeds
These work great! Small gradations make it easier to make minute adjustments and harder to completely **** up a reed (though I still manage)!
