I dont know where the suggestion came from but someone thought I might like this Youtube video.


What I found most interesting is the part where the reeds are tuned. Being a novice I would have guessed that the reeds were tuned one at a time but this looks like they are tuned in pairs? Maybe fourths? Not sure. Is the tuner listening for beats, like tuning a piano?

In any case it gave me an even greater appreciation of the hand work that goes into building an accordion as well as an appreciation for anyone who can do this work.
