How do you adjust your body depth and soundhole size between sizes? Is there a formula or percentage?

Depends what you're trying to achieve.

But irrespective of what you're trying to achieve, there are no simple relationships covering the acoustics.

I'm pretty sure sound hole size is determined by the square root of the size of your hand multiplied by the size of your hand divided by the number of times you'll need to shave the braces after you get the top on.

I have been using the same sized sound hole on all of my sizes and the same depth on all with good results. Do you guys change these elements per size or just find one you like and roll with it?
