Chubby 3 Handle Shape Dimmen

I am going to be starting a new brush for @thisISjoel tomorrow and whilst I am happy to judge the overall shape and size by eye from a picture whilst turning it, I thought I would ask here to see if anyone has one that they can measure and through a few dimensions at me.
1. Overall Height I understand to be only 45mm but then I did see info saying 48mm ??

2. Diameter's at the various points up the height of the handle.
3. Height from base of handle to the top of the lower band.

Sizes will help speed the turning and provide better accuracy for the finished handle, any help with sizes would be appreciated and if not, I am sure I can get it very damned close ;)
Cheers Tony

Official measurements from their website

  • Handle height: 48mm
  • Loft: 54mm
  • Knot diameter: 28.5mm
Maybe the client can pip in with their preferences?
 
Here also the measurement from the Maseto/LS brush - I have never tried a Chubby 3, but find the Chubby 2 uncomfortable for some reason...this is comfortable

Knot (out of the handle - so I assume ~30mm at the bottom) 32mm
Handle base diameter 43mm
Handle height 47mm

Here the 2 brushes I have - please let me know if you need anything else:
