So is this press release from the Alberta minister of education simple ignorance or deliberate misinformation? Surely he knows it’s common for a union to recommend voting “no” on the employers final offer, if they haven’t reached an agreement?

I designed this 3d-printed music stand tray. It can attach to any music stand and doesn’t require any hardware!

The 3d printed oboe: can you make an entire oboe by 3d printing? Here it is! The design is based on a Hendrik Richters oboe from the early 18th century. #oboe #3dprinting

I made these barrels for a clarinet-playing friend who wanted to try some different lengths for tuning.

A 3d printed low Bb extension for a Howarth oboe d’amore. Just in case. This is an improvement on my design from 2020–the new version should be more reliable and easier to use.

These 3d printed knife wedges are available at waldronreeds.com. By sharpening your reed knife on the same angle every time your knife will be more consistently sharp and will last longer too!

Hey #canada now that many parts of our country are getting their first real snow it’s time for a pertinent question:

Do you shovel left or right?

I’m right handed and shovel left. Good luck out there!

Hey #oboe players and #reedmakers, here’s a thing I made to help sharpen reed knives!

The wedges are a guide for keeping the angles on your knife from changing over time. They prevent “rounding off”

Today’s repair: this 20 year old Yamaha with a long history of cracks, thankfully almost done and playing great.
