I have never made new reeds, but I don’t see why feeler stock of the proper thickness shouldn’t work. Another option may be to salvage reeds from another motor. Maybe having to cut to size. Of course the issue with DIY will be to ensure absolute flatness of the final product.
Feeler gage stock is available in long lengths, like 12 inch, I believe.
