David, 

Completely agree. It's all part of the  learning curve to making scales
"less Bad".<G> When you have done the numbers and ordered the  strings...and
the results are not  what you expected, even though the string maker made
them correctly, then you  have something to assess and possibly  change  for
the better, the second time.<G> Yes, it can be a bit expensive and sometimes
frustrating, but it leads to knowledge that is needed by every tech that
changes strings, IMHO.

Regards,

Joe
