I'd suggest you use a magic marker to mark the facing where you want it to
begin.  Personally, I think if it's not perfect, leave it alone because the
reeds change this anyway. In other words, everytime you change your reed
it's like changing your facing.  You're probably altering the baffle to reed
ratio more than anything else anyway.  Phil
