Thank you, shorthand, for shrinking the file.

(I finally reloaded my generic photoshop application, and got lost trying to figure out how to fix the size.
I am better at pics of the doggies and scenery than with macro photos.)

Yes....it is a trick question.

The material is the same!!
Both are hard rubber from the same source.
And....it is new material.

It is VERY TRICKY to work with using wood-oriented tools.

I have renewed respect for anyone who attempts to make mouthpieces.

Obviously, as seen in the pictures, I used the material to make barrels. The one on the left is nearly finished. The one on the right works ok, but is ugly.

One thing I learned.... the thickness of the material affects the sound moreso than with wood. I have to work out the ideal shape before commenting further.
I recorded a snippet of music using the barrel on the left and sent it to the materials expert. I will then reshape the barrel and repeat the recording process to see if the spectrum changes.

I will comment that it does seem to allow projection and coloration akin to grenadilla, with perhaps a bit of (dare I use the D word?) uh...warmth.

Thanks for playing along with the quiz
