Hey Kinya

is it possible to know where you got the grinding stick seen in this video?

from the article "How a Gang of Harmonica Geeks Saved the Soul of the Blues Harp"

Great article by the way.

Thank you very much Kinya

Thank you very much Kinya :)

May i ask how you stumbled on these stones or the idea to use them to tune up harps?

it looks way easier to tune up the reeds. you didn't seem to put a lot of time removing brass from the reed in the video.
