Rick,
I agree that the more precise we make the machines the better they work. What I was implying was that the disscusion on precision was taking over the group rather than focusing on Gingery design machines.
If you can somehow aime your precision toward how to build/ modify the Gingery series better I would be all for it. I like reading your articles and think you have some great ideas, I wish not to discourage precision but to champion the building and modification of Gingery as our main topic.
