Re: Glotin Chedeville Mouthpieces/Why the high price?

When I hear "handmade mouthpiece" I think of wood mouthpieces. Those, I think, must have been made according to a standard pattern of some sort using boring and turning tools, etc.
So, handmade that we're talking about here is mostly shaping the lay of a standard blank to suit the individual player (?) .
The wood mouthpieces I've seen, even really old ones, look like they were made on some kind of machine. For that matter, so do old boxwood clarinets. That leads me to wonder whether hand finishing methods have changed much since the clarinet started gaining popularity.
