    This last one is a 1980, the front pins are .147". Using thin glue,

.162"cauls, and stock cloth, I do very little easing.   I find that putting cauls

in that are about .015" bigger than the pins gives me the right amount of

clearance. 







Must be something in the branch water down there because for .145 f/r pins

I use a .147 caul in the summer and .152 caul in the winter to accommodate

for seasonal humidity swings.





 .161 balance rails, .160 caul., .145 for standard pins. Cauls are brass, heated.
