Hi ric,
            I think the best place for most practical reasons, is mid point 
between just bedded and just starting to move the front rail.
This gives a good safety margin for humidity swings.   For performance 
regulation, then, I will continue to push the window.
I have always been anally retentive with bedding, but this thread has got 
me re thinking with regards to soft wood frames.

I know that Leroy is aware of all the variables in this area,  but when 
teaching a class you have to come up with a standard that will work for 
almost every one.
Tech's are often looking for a simple magic bullet to cure all ill's.   If 
you find one let me know.  No Black and White answers in this 
business,  just a lot of passion.

What I do day to day, and what I will teach, and preach, is often very 
different.  The old adage, "A little knowledge is very dangerous thing." is 
very true.

Regards Roger
