No, I'm aware of the intermediate, final sequence. They're not 
loose by much when I get done, but enough that they wouldn't 
pass the PTG exam.  Plus, I feel they should end up on the tight 
side, if anything, since that can be remedied by ironing or 
easing.  Maybe both times I had extremely worn keypins or 
mortises that had been over-eased by someone before me.
