Knowing your approach to your work as I do, Jude, I would say that you are
driven rather than screwed.  J

Truly. I'll see what I can dig up.

Yes and not a solution I would condone.

 

And what do you mean by

I would say that the flag pole range is anywhere above 1" to 1-1/8" for a
2/0 x 2-1/2" still somewhat dependent on torque specification and block
composition. Come to think of it however, flag-poling shouldn't affect
torque; but I still contend the amount of pinblock to tuning pin surface
area does. Perhaps if they're screwed in rather than driven the case would
be different. I may be screwed but my pins are driven.
