V3:
So, when I designed the dual-chamber part of it, all I had to go on was a grainy picture from a low quality xun on Amazon. I didn't even really know what it was supposed to do exactly. That picture made it look like the narrowed part occurred between the top two holes and the rest. Now I think I understand it a bit better; it acts as a sort of baffle, so my design didn't make any sense. I've moved the narrowed part above all the holes. I've also made the way that it narrows much more organic in shape, and better for printing. I had to move the tone holes lower to do all of that.
I made the labium much wider with a more gradual curve. In V1 and V2, you had to direct your airstream almost perfect to hit any of the higher notes, it was very tricky. This will hopefully fix that.
I added a flattened portion to the back of the embouchure hole, to hopefully get your lip closer.
Finally, I added a ring of narrowed wall about halfway up the inside of the bottom chamber.
