Oboe reed making plaque

thingiverse

This thing is for making oboe reeds. It fits between the blades of the cane while they are being scraped. It's better than commercially available alternatives, and cheaper too. It must be printed 100% filled, and sandpapered smooth after printing. After some use, sandpaper it again to remove marks left by scraping knife. If you use an SLA printer, then much less time is needed to sandpaper it smooth! Because the plastic will eventualy get marks from the knife, and these are really very cheap, print LOTS of them and simply use a new one when the old one has had enough. I like black best as you can see the cane well, but not everyone wants to see the cane!
