Mini Set-up- Reamers, Mandrels, & More


This new set up is ideal for those reed makers on a budget, or works well as a travel kit to take on the road or to your lesson.


To keep my prices low, I quite often buy in bulk, both from  wood suppliers, specialty manufactures,  as well as the machine shops that do custom work for Nexuswoodwind.  As a result, I have have left over pieces and parts from already completed projects, inventory,  and set-ups that are  already listed on my website. This mini set up is a result of pulling together some of my surplus inventory to create a compact and economical addition to any reed-makers  arsenal of tools and widgets.
