[Harp-L] B-Radical Pics

[David Fertig <drfertig@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hal, the B-Radical I have (#629) is a slightly updated chassis from the one I initially got (#578) in May 2010, this one (I think it was upgraded in July or August?) has the following dimensions (IN PARENS, after the supposed dimensions from your prior email), caveat, these are measurements by a hamfisted lawyer, not an engineer, but they are pretty darned close to precise, and quite different from what you had:

B-rad length in front - 4 1/4 inches.  (4")
B-rad length in back - 4 1/2 inches (4.25")
 
B-rad thickness at back 1 1/16 inches (13/16ths)
B-rad thickness at mouth 0.78 inches (3/4")
 
B-rad distance from mouthpiece to back
sides -1 7/16 inches.  (1 3/8")
middle - 1 5/8 inches (1 3/16")


Good luck!  I still say just get a damned fishing tackle box and be done with it . . .

I
 am asking for a little help. I have a custom case order from someone 
that has a handful of B-Radicals. With  their different shape I think it
 would help my foam man who does the cad drawings if he could see the 
harmonica from say 3 or 4 different views. 
The owner of these B 
radicals has furnished some dimensions. Maybe someone could double check
 them. Below are the dimensions provided.

I hope this helps. Measured with a set of vernier calipers...  

B-rad length in front - 4 1/4 inches. 
B-rad length in back - 4 1/2 inches 
  
B-rad thickness at back 1 1/16 inches 
B-rad thickness at mouth 0.78 inches 
  
B-rad distance from mouthpiece to back 
sides -1 7/16 inches. 
middle - 1 5/8 inches

Thanks to all for your help. (offlist please)
