Dale said: "All actions are subject the accelerating action phenomena to changing ratios thru the complete range of motion as the capstans is moving further from the wip center pin and the increasing leverage efficiency in the wip." Dale, I can't agree. The capstan does not move but a miniscule "...further from the wip center pin...". Del brought this to my attention during a Key class I was giving. I agree with Del, ...that there is little movement of the capstan along the wippen foot felt! They are so close to linear to each other that the differences of their arcs is pretty much negligible imo.<G> Joe Joe Garrett, R.P.T. Captain of the Tool Police Squares R I
