Keytop Trimming Question/Dave Smith

[Dave Smith]

Sarah, J Patrick and Joe, your comments have made me think harder about this
at a whole different level.   So, thanks, I'll let you know how it comes
out.  Improving on an original design?   Such power exists?!
At this point in my progress, I strain not to screw something up.
Interesting to think about improving on the original, rather than just not
messing up in re-creating it.
THANKS!  (I think)
