All wooden pipes have feet circular in cross-section.

Bevelling at the top of wooden pipes only occurs with the open pipes of the Choir Suabe Flute 4 ft. (c0-g3) and Great Hohlflute 8 ft (c0-g3). In the latter case, this is only slight.

The mouth is always siutation on the small side, except with pipes square in cross-section, where no appreciable difference exists.
