H. Height, taken from the lower edge of the upper lip (i.e., not
from the languid seam or the lower lip’s upper edge). If the lips
have been scribed, the measurement is taken at the center of
the scribed lines. If the lips are only pressed the actual height
is measured unless the intended height is clearly detected.
ruler in half-millimeters or vernier callipers (de-
pending on the alloy, stiffness, etc.).
Cut-up Cut-up.
In cases where the upper lip has been changed and the cut-up
lowered, the measurement specifies the distance between the
soldering joint of the upper lip’s alteration and the lower lip’s
upper edge. Consequently, this measurement must be used
with caution, since the edges of the lips may have been “ti-
died up” more or less, before the lowering-piece was applied.

pending on the alloy, stiffness, etc.).
M. orig. Cut-up, measured at the middle of the lips: the distance
between the lower lip upper edge and the languid seam;
measured between the original metal and the metal
piece first soldered in for the lowering of the cut-up.
M. sec. Cut-up, measured at the middle of the lips: the dis-
tance between the lower lip upper edge and the languid
seam; measured between the metal piece first soldered
in for the lowering of the cut-up and a second (addi-
tional) soldered-in piece also for cut-up lowering.
