Fujan definitely makes for an easier job. I've tried a variety of levers, from a Jahn to a couple of homemade ones that are stiffer than the typical lever. The Fujan is by far the stiffest of the ones I've used. On really tight pins, some more mass might help, especially on the end of the lever. I'm having a machinist make me something that will allow for that on the Fujan. It will also let me use a Jahn head on the Fujan shaft, something I've been wanting to try for a while. -- JF -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
