>I've tried slipping the tool's shank from the bottom up, in-between >the let-off dowels, but geesh, there's just no room! I thinned the shank on a tool so it fits between the dowels. I wish that the manufacturers would taper the top end of the Let Off dowel so a stock tool can easily reach the jack set screw. There is no need for that mass above the capstan holes. (Roger, how 'bout it) If I were to install a new set, I'd chuck each one in a drill and taper with a pencil sharpener, much the same as I sharpen pencils now. Lacking a sharpener large enough, taper against a disk sander or such. Minutes at the manufacturing level would save cumulative hours in the field, it should even save time at the factory.
