Primarily basics like Journal article dates, links to David's drawings/pictures, etc. I also have a bunch of posts about weighing the shanks/flanges, hammers, placement of them, etc. I could put that together too, if you'd like. Let me know. Avery At 09:07 AM 12/13/03, you wrote: >Through the years I have sat through David Stanwood's classes on this >subject, so I will now try to find my notes and class handouts.
