Re: wooden mouthpieces?
Wood scares the bejeezus out of me. When I was apprenticing as a repair tech, I was given a symphony cat's wood clarinet mpce to re-cork and as I was sanding it to fit, I turned it on the jig instead of taking it off, rotating it, then putting it back on the jig. You guessed it. CRACK. Broken mouthpiece. I got to buy him a new one. No, I did not learn my lesson as I did the same thing with a crystal mpce. As a service to music, I stopped repairing instruments. (I was a pretty good repairman, though)
