This innovative shaping machine enables fast and precise production of shaped cane. Simply insert the cane in the right position and push down the handle - that is all you need to do to shape bassoon cane with this new machine.
The Reeds ‘n Stuff shaping machine ensures great accuracy especially at the tip of the reed, where the cutting method contributes to better sealing of the reeds. The caveat is that cutting the cane in this way results in a slightly rougher edge. Most customers who are needing to process large amounts of cane quickly are not bothered by this, or use fine sandpaper over the edge to clean it up a bit. This machine is geared toward large quantity reed makers or schools with lots of students using the same shape.
Suitable for gouged cane as well as for gouged & profiled cane.
This machine has a Herzberg Shaper Form with it. Other shaper forms that are available for special order are Rieger 1A, Rieger 3, Fox 1, and Fox 3. Email to request one of these and we can order it for you.

Do you use dry or soaked cane?The shaping machine is used with dry cane.
Can I change the shape?Yes, the shaper form can be changed, so that different shapes can be used.
How many pieces of cane can be cut with the shaping machine?The shaper is very long lasting. It is a technology used in the industry to stamp out metal parts, therefore it is an extremely durable machine. It is difficult to give an exact number of pieces that can be cut over the life of the machine. However, we have produced this machine for 15 years now and never had a request for re-grinding.
