Might be you have a nice little easy to do trick on your hands for improving aggrafe termination short of actually reaming and polishing (burnishing ?) the aggrafe holes. In any case, next time I run into one of these sprayed (quick and dirty style) off plates I will try cleaning a few out and see what happens. btw.. loved the story about you and Del and the string of aggrafes. -- Richard Brekne RPT, N.P.T.F.
