Hi folks... thought I might share this little example with you in case 
any of you dont know how to do this. In the case of different sections 
for shank thicknesses you want to do each section separately of course.  
In anycase... if you simply start with hammer number 1 and record both 
position and weight in the appropriate columns, then weigh your shanks 
and just enter the values as you weigh them (i.e. not ordered) then run 
the macro in the spreadsheet.. (or follow the sort procedure given) then 
this spread sheet example will sort them all out so that the heaviest 
hammer and lightest shank are always matched... one after the other. In 
the end the smoothest possible end SW curve is created.

I measure to the hundredth of a gram just to be a bit anal about it all 
:)... but it does make for very little effort in evening out end strike 
weights.

Cheers
RicB
