Paul:

That was, in fact, my tongue-in-cheek reference in response to the queries 
about whether or not I had assessed whether the action needed redesigning.  
As I mentioned, that approach was inappropriate in this case.  I believe my 
initial question was answered: there are no 9/16" leads and I will 
accomodate in some other fashion.

thank you all for your input.

David Love
