Well, of course the various dimensions are all inter-related. But I =
already have the tools to measure the facing and have a couple of tricks =
I learned from watching Everett Matson to get some idea of the chamber =
depth and baffle shape, which are open and visible. The bore has always =
for me been the mystery component simply because it's hardest to see and =
access. Hence, my curiosity about how (or if) people who actually work =
with mouthpieces measure the bore's size and shape.

Thanks,
Karl
