Working in conjunction with
Eric Arbiter, Associate Principal Bassoon of the Houston Symphony
, and more recently,
George Sakakeeny, professor of bassoon at the Eastman School of Music
, a new line of dial indicators is a now a reality.
This set up includes both a metric dial and an Inch dial....both of which are interchangeable. It also includes Eric Arbiter's new reed making book
The Way of Cane
Oxford edition) as well as a digital caliper that reads in decimals, fractions, and millimeters.
Also included are 7 styles of feeler arms:
1. Two "Inch" feeler arms (one Arbiter design and the other Sakakeeny design)-both are delineated in 1/8" increments
2. Three "metric" arms (one wider Rieger style arm, another narrower Arbiter design, and the third Sakakeeny design)-all 3 delineated in
4mm increments
3. Two "unmarked" Heckel style arms. Heckel at one point offered dial indicators, and these are copies of the arms that they used.
With these two arms, the reed maker can add his or her own hashmarks using very thin tape or a triangular needle file
Nexus Woodwind is now the exclusive distributor of the Arb Designs Dial Indicator Line.
With the exception of the Heckel style arms, all feeler arms are color coded. This allows for easier reading of your reed on the arm when measuring
