                     Well said. I just put in a set O stwy hammers on an L . 
They'll require very little juice or needling. Plenty of fat tone from the 
get go. As to the consistency I can't comment but will see. There wippens fit 
every stwy ever made without regulation gymnastics as with some other parts. 
I typically use Ronsens as well
