Hi JOe,
do thse Sole tips work with the Schaff #21 hammer, and how are they different than the tips shcaff sells?  Also, what degree angle is best 15 or 5 for the head?  
Marshall
ps. Did I tell you that I've seen one of the levers you make with the ball on the end. I was up in Madison getting some tutoring from an RPT who knows you, Bill Bremmer, and he has one of your levers, a really neat one I must say.
