According to Joel Purnell in Sax School, it can be a good idea to “Picle” your Reeds. - You can read a lenghty article about it here: https://saxschoolonline.com/articles/why-pickle-your-sax-reeds/#Why_pickle_your_sax_reeds I have tried vodka, but it gives the reeds a smell of perfume which i dont like, but gin works perfect, if you ask me! 

I have included the Sketchup file, so you can taylor it to your own reeds, or just get inspired by it! They fit my “1 ½ Vandoren” reeds! The glass that i have used is a Puori Omega3 capsule glass: https://puori.com/products/o3-ultra-pure-fish-oil-capsules?srsltid=AfmBOoojalTxjGZbnQKDJjmsJASk5Ufs85JaxZRFUFveNjCFJzcYu21O 

Ill admit that it isnt quite watertight, so i carry it in a bag, when im travelling with my sax!
