This class will include information on cane and tool selection, and will teach Ariel's entire process of forming with hot water to ensure the quick and consistent construction of a reed blank. Cane, wire, and string will be provided for you. Bring a small heat-resistant bowl and a reed drying rack if you have one. Necessary tools: mandrel, pliers, thin metal ruler.
