Modified Nathan Whistle Measurements from the 251?

A number of years ago I measured the modification to the whistle that the 73 wears in case somebody wanted to attempt a copy. These are the measurements I took back in 2013. The shape is much different than what you would usually find from a factory delivered Nathan, and there are some machine or chisel marks with some slight variations on each chamber. Would be interesting to know who did it and how they figure out how to switch it up. It's a very pretty sounding whistle.
