        Sorry, I forgot to ask one other question for David Stanwood. Would
you please explain to me (and anyone else) why you recommend weighing the
Strike Weight with a felt wedge on the pan of the scale? I do not
understand the value of this as I seem to get the same weight by just
setting the hammer face down directly on the pan with the shank horizontal
as described, and that is much quicker and easier. Thanks again.
