Another little tidbit pops up with this Petrof. In checking the <<magic line>> from balance rail pin to whippen center I find that there is no way on this earth I will ever get the capstan/whippen heel on the line at half blow. It appears that the whippen rail is just plain to low. I havent ever fooled around with changing the height of the whippen rail so I would appreciate any input/advice any of you care to give. On the side, I noticed when loosening the whippen rail screws the hammer line droped about 3-4 mm... most noticbly in the center range. This without the rail itself moving forward or backwards... tho it raised off the action brackets a mil or so. Any comments on this would also be appreciated. Thanks RicB
