As a wood turner I am interested if any of the group have dimension details 
and what type of wood was used for these mouthpieces. It "SOUNDS" like an 
interesting poroject.

I know a couple of players who have developed allergies to metal
mouthpieces, causing swelling and sore lips.  One did try a wooden
mouthpieces but found that after a couple of months it became marked
on the rim and 'somewhat smelly'.  They now use clear plastic ones
which are cheaper, longer lasting and possibly more hygenic...
