[Harp-L] tuning reeds

[David Fertig <drfertig@xxxxxxxxx>]

Rich, I found a sanding wand at a local model train shop, under $5, it's got a nice tapered tip, and uses a narrow band of sandpaper (I'm using 320 grit, coded green)  that can be advanced around as it's worn.  Easy does it!  "The Detail Sander by NWSL (see nwsl.com )

I also use it to scrape away the rust that some say doesn't occur on nickel, brass and phosphor bronze. . .

                Hello,
Any
recommendations for tools for tuning reeds and where to get them. I
like the idea of a dremel like rotary tool and the shofu brownee
attachment. But don´t know specific model numbers or places to purchase
them. Any advice on those or any better methods greatly appreciated.
Thanks! Rich
