They were overcentering and hadn't even been filed more than once, if that. I've know him for a long time and we have a good relationship. I talked to him this morning and found out exactly what he'd done and his reasons. Yes, in some ways, it's causing more work. But he saved me a heck of a lot more work by doing all the damper regulation stuff, too. Plus filing the hammers. So I tend to think that I'll come out ahead in the long run. :-) Avery ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
