Tools for new workshop

[Jamesmeyre]

Searching for bagpipe reed making and other tools for wind instruments. Also tool sharpening and drilling jigs plus soldering workstations.

Hi Jamesmeyre - welcome to HomemadeTools.net

Wind instrument tools; very interesting. We have some luthiers on board who may be able to assist. Feel free to start a new thread in the Help Me Build subforum with your specific tool build requests, and I'm sure you'll get some good responses.

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!
