Reed Machines Oboe Profiling Machine - CUBE

The Reed Machines tip profiler works for bassoon, baroque bassoon, contra bassoon or contraforte reeds. There are many adjustable features on this machine.

Adjustable Features

• the position of the profile in the lengthwise
• the thickness of the tip
• the length of the scrape
• the thickness of the back of the scrape is adjustable while the thickness of the tip stays the same, this is by far the most important (and unique) adjustment of the tip profiler

Other Features

• the knife is round and can be used in 8 positions (the lifetime of a knife is thousands of reeds)
• the reed can be rotated 180° without taking the reed from the tip profiler so the profile on the 2 halves of the reed are exactly on the same position
• it is possible to profile only the reed tip area in a V like shape (more at the sides than in the middle)
• standard templates are available or custom templates can be ordered
