Alan, with do respect while it is more effective to add material at the top (you increasing length of the pipe and reducing venting), adding material all around hole also works on lowering pitch. It works the same way as lowering pad, by reducing venting and forcing more air via lower toneholes. Obviously you'd need to add more material at the bottom to make it work and impact depends on size of the tonehole and how well it is vented.

Interesting that reducing venting via adding at the bottom (or rather all around) has more impact on fundamental, so it could be a solution for open hole if you need to move 1st mode tone down w/o moving 2nd mode down much.

Either way it is hard to imagine tonehole warped as much from well seasoned grenadilla drying out. If there are any tonehole "ovalization" issues they are likely from hand drilling not drying.
