When I cut mine I set up a jig so they would all measure the same length. I clamped two steel blocks to the table top and I used a stationary belt sander to carefully take mat'l off to get them the same length. I worked them until they just fit between the blocks. Than a hand file to get off that last .00001.
This is almost as much fun as measuring the lift. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/rolleyes.gif) Paul |
