Grin.... ANDRE' !!!! Whilst I would just LOVE to think of myself as a bonified genius... we all know er.... otherwise :) Tho I do have a genuine talent for not accepting somebody elses definition of truth hook line and sinker most of the time. Gets me into as much trouble as anything else tho. As for the hammer assist spring... maybe it has some merit... but number 1 how to execute it ? and number 2 maybe its actually not such a good idea, who knows until something is tried ? Did you notice that one action in those diagrams with the big bulbus counterweight on the back side of the shank ? Obviously the basic idea of countering the hammer weight on the shank has been thought of before. Still.. its a thought and it would be fun to know why (if) its not a workable idea.
