Making a saxophone wood mouthpiece is very accurate. Thank you for your efforts. I'm also a saxophone mouthpiece handmade sculptor.

I would love to get in contact with you. I play on a 1930s Buescher MP. It's scary playing on a MP that can't be replaced. I have a drawer full of them that don't play because of the facing, but when I've tried having them refaced it never works. It doesn't make sense to me that removing material from one part of the MP wouldn't affect everything else. The answer would be to make an exact copy. I've tried to find somebody to do a 3D copy, with no luck. Not sure how they would work anyway. Such a lightweight material. Any suggestions would be so appreciated!

Superb job Dear Vivian. You are a brain. A Very clever Lad

Thank you Ashwin for the kind words. My technique enables anyone with a modicum of skill with hand tools to make any type of mouthpiece be it low or medium or high impedance with any type of baffle, chamber, throat, facing and tip. The video however was produced by a master craftsman who had access to the most advanced machine tools and so the advantages of my technique were not very apparent. I hope that many builders will now be able to build the type of mouthpiece desired at an affordable price.

Good job, 👌✌

Very good! Saudações do Brasil! Thank you!

Great job but i did notice some light peeking through.

Do you have recommendations for making a similar mouthpiece for a woodwind instrument I've made out of bone? The interior of the bone isn't a circle by any means, so I'm wondering if it will still make a good sound if the mouthpiece tapes into something that isn't a circle

Interesting choice of material. Bone being hard is good for sound. Since you are not making an instrument of orchestral quality, the bore is relatively unimportant. All that is required is a column of.air which can be made to vibrate. The connection to the bone can be any shape but must be airtight. Perhaps you could make some sort of tapered reamer which could scrape the bone to size since the bone centre is likely to be softer. Good luck.

I'm glad to see your comment, as I'm gathering information on making a bone reed pipe as well! As a music-archaeology experiment. I've been wondering if the mouthpiece could be fit into the bone pipe and sealed using beeswax, as I believe is done on some Moroccan, Egyptian and Indian reed pipes.

@@almishti I think getting the right cut on the mouthpiece will be a little tricky. Maybe trace around the end you want to attach the mouthpiece to to get the outline so it fits snug? Beeswax sounds like it would work well for a seal, I have used this with a cork on one end of a bone flute.

@@aydieblake I imagine that could work, the tracing. And some very fine filing with needle files? I'd be interested to hear how it comes out when you're done.

I assume you meant endmill when you said drill. So occasionally the morse taper slips because I didn’t ram it home hard enough. So that makes me human not a bad master!
