Making wooden oboes – FineWoodworking

I’ve had this on my list of videos to share for a while, but haven’t done it until now for a couple of reasons.

• We like sharing lesser-known content here with millions of views Made You Look.
• It is closely related to woodworking. The woodworking work done in the video is also done with machinist equipment.
• There are no practical woodworking items you will get from this video.

That said, the algorithm started pushing it against me again, so I looked it up again and realized there were some nice things to come from watching very expensive oboes being made. rice field.

First of all, I think the conservation efforts around the African Blackwood are commendable. We hope that these efforts will help ensure a steady supply of oboe wood, heritage and resources for many centuries to come. Second, I think it’s incredible how oboe manufacturers “stress test” wood. Most woodworkers never intentionally expose their inventory to humidity or temperature fluctuations, but the reality is that if you’re going to sell your instrument at used car prices, you’ll want to get rid of inventory that cracks.

I found it all very interesting, and I thought you might too.
