   Jumping into the conversation here (former music ed/voice major). Any double-reed instrumentalist has to make their own reeds. They are very labor-intensive. I took Woodwind Methods twice, including once several years after graduation. I actually enjoyed learning the bassoon, but I’m grateful I didn’t have to make the reeds!

   The reason I asked is that it was my understanding that Elon financed Tesla, but didn’t found the company. I mean, great job hiring people who hire the engineers, designers, mechanics, assembly-line (yes?) manufacturers, but I was under the (mistaken?) impression that he did not actually do the actual intellectual, let alone hands-on, work.

    So does “jumper,” and it’s taken me years to be able to visualize a sweater instead of an overdress/tunic.
