The appearance of the cane is often deceptive and we quickly learn: </br><i>The truth lies beneath the surface.</i></p> <p>The hardness tester offers an objective way to judge the quality, not just the quantity of cane. By measuring the hardness of the cane at both ends we are able to discern whether a piece of cane has the same qualities throughout the entire piece. This way we can ensure that the two blades of a reed will vibrate similarly.</p> <p>Save yourself valuable time and increase the quality of your reed making.<br>Achieve reliable and repeatable results.</p> <p>Our hardness testers are available in both analog or digital formats.<br>The precision of both devices is identical, the only difference lies in the convenience of use.</p> <p><div id="YTVideoTextLink" viID="5EwlcdCTpGc"><div></p> </section> <section id="details" class="faq detailmenueon toggle" name="FAQ"> <button href="#detail-faq" class="detail-toggle cross"> <h1 id="rns_faq">FAQ</h1></button> <div id="detail-faq" style="display: none"> <span class="fag-frage">Why is the hardness tester so important?</span> <p class="fag-antwort">First of all, the time saved in selecting suitable canes for you offers a great advantage. You save valuable working time that you would otherwise spend gouging, shaping, tying on and scraping canes that would not have given you a suitable result anyway. More important, however, is the fact that you can increase the quality of your reed making and get more reliable results.</p> <span class="fag-frage">Should the cane be measured dry or soaked?</span> <p class="fag-antwort">It should be noted that only sufficiently dried cane will give useful results. It is not advisable to use soaked cane. It is best to note the test results on the cane and later on the staple. This will give you an overview of what works well for you personally.</p> <span class="fag-frage">In what stage should the cane be measured for hardness?</span> <p class="fag-antwort">It is best to use the hardness tester after pregouging if you have a pregouging machine. The basic requirement is a smooth surface and a consistent thickness. If you use the small pregouger instead of a machine, you should test the cane after gouging.</p> <span class="fag-frage"> Are the measuring results for pregouged cane the same as for gouged cane? </span> <p class="fag-antwort"> If the material is thicker, the measurement results will be higher.</p> <span class="fag-frage">What are the usual measuring results? </span> <p class="fag-antwort"> Usually we get readings from seven hundredths (hard) to almost 40 hundredths (soft).</p> <span class="fag-frage"> Are there different measurement results for the hardness testers?</span> <p class="fag-antwort"> Yes, as there is no standard scale and the factory tolerance of the dial indicator is 2 hundredths, it is possible that the hardness testers show different results.</p> <span class="fag-frage">Is there a difference between the hardness tester for oboe, bassoon, clarinet and bagpipe?</span> <p class="fag-antwort"> Yes, the hardness testers have each been set up for a specific instrument. The heights of the support plate differ. The so-called <a class="rns_textlink" href="https://dev.reedsnstuff.com/en/arbour-for-hardness-tester.html">arbour</a>, on which the cane lies, is available individually, allowing you to convert your machine for other instruments.</p> <span class="fag-frage">Can the hardness tester be used as a dial indicator?</span> <p class="fag-antwort">The support plate of the hardness tester is too large to obtain precise results. The thickness of finished reeds, for example, cannot be measured in any case. Also with gouged cane inaccurate measurement results may occur. For this reasons we do not recommend to double the hardness tester as a dial indicator.</p> <span class="fag-frage"> What is the difference between the analog and digital hardness tester? Which one is more accurate? </span> <p class="fag-antwort">Both differ only in the convenience of the reading. With the digital hardness tester, the zero position can be reached by pressing a button. With the analogue hardness tester, the dial has to be turned. The precision of both devices is the same. If required, you can connect the digital hardness tester to your computer to create personal statistics.</p> <span class="fag-frage">The digital dial shows a number and SET blinks. The number shown does not change even if I move the axle up or down.</span> <p class="fag-antwort">Please keep ZERO pressed for 3 seconds. This erases the SET memory.</p> <span class="fag-frage">When do I have to change the battery?</span> <p class="fag-antwort"> The battery must be changed when the display flashes, the battery symbol appears, or nothing is displayed. The battery indicates the type used (e.g. LR 44). </p> <span class="fag-frage">How do I change the battery?</span> <p class="fag-antwort"> Do not touch the new battery with your fingers, use a piece of cloth. The battery compartment is located on the upper left side of the dial gauge. Use a small screwdriver or the tip of a sharp knife to lift off the small plastic cover. Insert the new battery exactly as you found the old one. When inserting the new battery be careful not to touch, bend, or break the battery contacts (the small pieces of metal inside the dial gauge).<br> You can find detailed instructions <a class="rns_textlink" href="https://www.reedsnstuff.com/en/How-you-change-the-battery-of-your-digital-hardness-tester-or-dial-indicator/">here</a>.</p> </div></section> https://dev.reedsnstuff.com/en/Oboe/SALE/Digital-Hardness-Tester-SALE.html https://dev.reedsnstuff.com/en/Oboe/SALE/Base-with-1-hole-B-Stock.html Sun, 18 Jan 2026 11:14:04 +0100 <img src='https://dev.reedsnstuff.com/out/pictures/generated/product/1/390_255_100/m15-0100_02.jpg' border=0 align='left' hspace=5><section> <p>Base for Intrument Stand for one peg.

However, the dial indicator can also be recalibrated so that the large pointer is back at 12 o'clock. To do this, loosen the fastening screw that fixes the dial indicator in the dial indicator arm. Now position the dial indicator by moving it up or down so that both the small and large pointer show ZERO. When locking the screw do not tighten it too much, as this can block the axle movement in the dial indicator.</p> <span class="fag-frage">Can I change the tip of the dial indicator?</span> <p class="fag-antwort">Replacing the tip of the dial indicator is easy to do. You can simply turn out the tip that you have now with the help of pliers and replace it with the desired new tip. If there is not enough space between the tongue and the tip, you can loosen the screw that fixes the dial gauge in the dial gauge arm and remove the dial gauge from the arm. It may now be necessary to recalibrate the dial indicator.</p> <span class="fag-frage">Can I change the tongue of the dial indicator?</span> <p class="fag-antwort"> The tongue of the dial gauge can also be changed very easily.

The thickness of finished reeds, for example, cannot be measured with the hardness tester. Inaccurate measurement results may occur also with gouged cane. For this reasons we do not recommend using the hardness tester as a dial indicator.</p> <span class="fag-frage">Can I transform my dial indicator from right to left-handed or do I need to buy a new one?</span> <p class="fag-antwort">The dial indicator can easily be transformed from right to left-handed. Simply loosen the set screw at the end of the arm holding the dial. This will allow you to rotate the dial to face the opposite direction. Be sure to calibrate the height of the dial so it both touches the tongue and reads "0" before tightening the set screw. Make sure not over-tighten this screw as it will damage the actuating shaft and prevent the dial from operating properly.</p> </div></section> https://dev.reedsnstuff.com/en/Oboe/SALE/Dial-Indicator-MINI-SALE.html https://dev.reedsnstuff.com/en/Oboe/SALE/Brass-Wire-Spool-B-Stock.html Tue, 27 Jan 2026 12:14:57 +0100 <img src='https://dev.reedsnstuff.com/out/pictures/generated/product/1/390_255_100/f24-00006.jpg' border=0 align='left' hspace=5><section> <h1>Forming, Binding & Wiring</h1> <p>The 0.3 mm gauge brass wire is commonly used for wiring reeds to keep them open and in position.<br>0.4 mm gauge is for forming & binding and to keep the reeds open and in position</p> <p>We now also offer two hardness levels of wire.
