I've been making these things for 31 years but never did any measurements or attempts to standardize the parts sizes, just kinda threw them together by eyeballing, Mr. Turpin's book ( and Jordan's) gave vague references to size but nothing specific.
Anyway, I went through the process of making one and documented the sizes of the parts and assembly if any of y'all want to make one.
I took some pics and will post 1 at a time.
Here are Mr. Turpin's instructions, the other page is a photo of his turned yelper.
