Jeff,

I took a look.  When using the Fujan do you ever have a problem clearing
struts, etc?  Do you skin your knuckles on the tuning pins?  :-)  I have a
tip extension for clearance that I have to use occasionally, but don't care
for it much.  Long ago I changed to a 15 degree head with my ol' Hale lever,
to get more of the clearance I wanted.
