Mr. Sakakeeny has generously allowed me to use his design for a large production run of his mandrel tips.  I have met with him in his studio and he has personally measured these tips to make sure they are to his specifications.  He has also started using my Quick Release handles with my HEX based tips both for himself and his students. These tips are listed here, but also sold separately in my eBay store, with many configurations- both in size of rack, number of pins, and types of woods.      Here is a direct quote about the “Quick Release”  handles as well as the HEX base options:
 “The hex shaped base of these forming tips is a great design because the mandrel is prevented from turning in the handle’s socket when wrapping the reed with string. Also the quick release handle eliminates the need for an allen wrench or thumb screw.” The “Sakakeeny Style” stainless steel mandrel pin is quite unique in that it is purposely shorter in length so that it does not go too far beyond the first wire and has a precisely placed collar so that there is never any question about how far the mandrel pin should be inserted during the forming process. Here is a direct quote  from Mr. Sakakeeny’s wonderful reed making eBook about his forming mandrel design:
“This method of forming the tube requires a forming mandrel that is not too long and that is fairly narrow at its tip. At full insertion, it should only extend a few millimeters past the first wire. At its bottom or hilt, it should be about 5mm in diameter. If the forming mandrel is too long, the cane will probably crack.”Excerpt From: George Sakakeeny. “Making Reeds Start to Finish.” Reed eBooks, 2012. iBooks. https://itun.es/us/SGVZU.l
  Mr. Sakakeeny prefers removable tips,  and recommends keeping the reed on the same forming mandrel tip during the drying process, as well as  wrapping process.       I have many listings for his, and other styles of removable tips, as well as the companion drying racks  in my store.        Do a search for George Sakakeeny.  He is an amazing player and professor of bassoon for over 26 years at the Oberlin Conservatory.       Mr. Sakakeeny also has just released on iTunes a reed making “eBook” which is revolutionary in concept.   Not only is the content enlightening but within the book are numerous video clips of Mr Sakakeeny explaining and demonstrating all of his  concepts and methodologies.  It is unlike any reed making tutorial you will ever come across.  Check it out!!!!

The pins in this rack are made of high grade stainless steel, per Mr. Sakakeeny’s insistence, they are precision made from stainless steel and will never rust or tarnish. Although slightly more costly, the choice of stainless steel for these mandrels (not brass or standard less expensive steel), guarantees these tips will last a lifetime,  and additionally, provide an extremely smooth surface for forming.                This 15 pin base is made of BUBINGA wood, as is the handle you will choose.  It is beautiful and finely sanded, with a light oil varnish. 
    
  With the exception of German made PFERD handles….All the handles I use for all my tools (reamers, holding mandrels,  forming mandrels, Quick Release handles, shaper handles, etc) are hand lathed by me personally.  

     Custom orders & configurations can be accommodated.     Flat rate shipping in US is $5.95.       If you buy this, or any other tool, I can include and ship any cane order you place for NO additional cost in shipping.
International buyers always welcome.  To find shipping rate, just click on “Details” under shipping.   International shipping rates have fallen dramatically so check it out-you will be pleasantly surprised.             Please check my ratings, & also check my eBay store for many more  items of interest to bassoonists.
