Action ratio and knuckle distance

Actually, Stanwood’s equation of balance won’t tell you that.  The knuckle
hanging is not isolated in the formula.  You have to sample and do a weigh
off.

Stanwood's equations of balance would tell you that. Are you familiar with
David Stanwood's work?

How do you figure out the change that would occur in ACTION RATIO (AR) if
everything remains constant (strike weight, front weight,wippen balance
weight, and balance weight) except the knuckle is changed from 16.2 mm to
17mm, on paper, without actually trying it out on the action?
