Mitch, I haven't followed your problems and the debate around it, so I'll probably just repeat what others have said, if I was going to try to advice. You wrote: **** I'm sorry for such a vague description. This **** has been very hard for me to describe to people. **** It doesn't help when my techs tell everything looks **** good to them, just get use to it... I do agree about this - it IS hard to describe to people and to us technicians. The adjustment-work in the action is done in so many steps and at so many points, all dependent on each other, and it's not, even for an experienced tech, allways clear what possibilities the action has, when a customer tells about problems or what he wants from the instrument. The problem is that many technicians do the adjustments strictly according to tables --- this and that distance should be x and y mm, etc, with small variations from brand to brand. Then it is easy to "tell everything looks good...", but that little extra, or that specific request from the customer, may not be treated, simply because the tech lacks experience/knowledge or that it takes an awful lot of extra hours do do that "more-job". (Still, though, I'm talking about very, very small variations.) I hope you get in contact with a good technicican! Regards --- Nik Eliasson
