I bought a set of these and found them totally not useable for several
reasons.

The outer diameter was too small, so the rings tend to fall out at the
slightest opportunity. Also, since they are too small, the it is impossible
to line up the hole in the middle with the bore. I found this unsatisfactory.
I cant find them right now, maybe they were meant to be placed between the
mouthpieces and the barrel, rather than the barrel and the upper joint, but I
believe that they were too small for this tenon socket.

When I get my lathe this Christmas, I'll make my own!
