Pin flexing/bending/twisting

[Dave Davis]

Tom,
My wife likes marshmallows charred, so I'm sure the hide glue is an enhancement.  The other outdoor laboratory experiment I did late this summer during the bridgepin/false-beat debates was to put an old bridge with pins intact into a hot campfire with bridgepins up. This resulted in the false beats being eliminated permanently.

Thanks for the input. I'll look at it from a forensics point of view. I think there is an old pinblock in the shop that didn't get burned in campfires this summer.
