This works. I like to position the cheek plates at the middle of their travel,..." Please, Bob, what are cheek plates? First may I guess though? S&S Hammer Assembly shank has the "ears" and the flange grips the centre pin - are the cheek plates what I am calling "ears"?I suppose it's this old business of Anglo/American Terminology dichotomy.... As to the back action business - does the team think that by first boring and screwing the damper flanges - and then removing the screws and breaking the glue joint, this would make for a more tech-friendly action? Over to you-all! Michael G (UK) ps any of you running for president? Michael The cheek plates Bob & Ed are referring to are the plates in the cheek blocks that hold down on the action frame guide pin. The treble one is the primary concern & it is the one being positioned in the middle of its overall forward & backward line of travel. It is adjustable as are many/most makes. To the last question,uhh what Ron said. Dale ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
