<div>Sometimes it cracks me up. Correct me if I'm wrong but are you guys using scales that have an accuracy of a tenth of a gram? I suggested to a friend we get the one that has an accuracy of a hundreth of a gram. Your hammers range from 10 grams down to 5 grams. (give or take) So with 5 grams divided into 88 increments that yeilds a weight change of slightly more than half a tenth per hammer. It is senseless to use a strike weight curve unless I can post hammer weights after the taper like, #1, 9.64 #2, 9.60  #3, 9.55 #4, 9.45  #5, 9.49  #6, 9.35</div> <div> </div> <div>Now that could read 9.6, 9.6, 9.6, 9.4, 9.5, 9.4 or 9.6, 9.6, 9.5, 9.5, 9.5, 9.3. However with the scale we got it makes it possible to really dial in the weight of the parts. In the run above I can see that i can switch 4 and 5 and being the bass it won't show. A tenth of a gram scale doesn't cut it in my opinion for the proclaimed smoothness of curve. Essentially it all has to come out in the wash when the action is reweighed and leaded. </div> <div> </div> <div>Really we don't want to redesign the action, we want to make it work right. We are taking the measurement of an existing action and it doesn't matter what anybody else gets as the action ratio. 40 people can measure it and have 40 different answers for their computer/math models but nothing has changed in the action in question. It still has the same ratio it had before the measurements as afterwards. We have several options. The consensus is that 4 to 5 leads in a key is two much. I took out 4 pounds of lead. We can lighten the hammer, we can move the knuckle, we can move the capstan and even the heel. Sometimes we can get different whippen configs. Each one has it's own criteria that has to be considered before using. Key dip and blow distance really didn't change much with this capstan move but moving the knuckle, it sure does. </div> <div> </div> <div>Keith<br><br> </div>
