    Do you mean a profile gauge like in attachment #1?

    I should already have a bunch of those U-shapes that I chop off when I make the mold (attachment #2).

    So I guess once the shaft is in place, I can cut a long slender hole down the middle for the shaft log + the rest of the tunnel. That will allow me to measure the tunnel height from the shaft using the diagram I provided earlier.

    I plan to gradually increase the tunnel diameter near the beginning of the tunnel entrance to make as gradual of a transition as possible.

    Any other ideas?
