Thanks for the input!  I received a private e-mail yesterday suggesting that
the pins might be 1/0 instead of the traditional 2/0.  I hadn't thought of that
so I will measure the next time.  This would explain a lot since the pin seems
to bend out of control.  I would even question the quality of the steal used.
Bending can be a good thing to some degree but this is ridicules.  I have also
thought about pressure bar friction.  That may be as well.  Whatever the case I
think it needs to go back to the drawing board.
