    Hi Jamesmeyre,

    Welcome!

    My sister was an oboist and had a large collection of reed-making equipment. I seem to recall that a bagpipe utilizes a similar double-reed. You might get some useful ideas from the oboe/English horn/bassoon players.

    Glad to have you here, Jamesmeyre. Not many entries here on reed instruments, I'm afraid, but there are plenty of instrument makers here who may be able to pitch in. As for the other stuff you mentioned, you'll find plenty of examples here!
