I've attended David Stanwood's classes at = least twice and always learn more each time.

Another concern would be to have the capstan/cushion contact point = intersect the line drawn from the bottom of the br hole to the wip center while the key = is half way down. So you may need to adjust the height of the heel. =20 I checked this before ordering the new wippens. The new wippens = actually work better than the old. I learned this trick from Rick = Baldassin's class. The old wippens rose to the line but never actually = passed it. The new wippens are working just as they should as far as = the capston/cushion point. =20 I take it you will be using spring assist wippens. In that case the = BW needs to be set higher with the springs off and fine tune the BW with the springs. Contact Dave Stanwood. =20 Yes the wippens have the spring assist. Today has been a very productive day. Thanks everyone.
