So Norman, at the middle of the day it all comes down to what is Right.

If someone makes something and it works and he/she is happy with how it works surely it was made right.

Jonny,

As I mentioned, I used a machinist square to monitor the progress. I did see a tendency to round the edges IF I applied extra pressure trying to get done faster. Hitting it with much coarser grit and then working toward finer again fixed it. The gibs are installed, so you'll have to take my word for it.

DaveH, you are exactly right! This is a HOBBY. Not NASA. And even NASA screws up in their attempts to go "by the book". At the end of the day, if it works, who cares whether it makes some old timer happy because "that's the way it has always been done". Under those guidelines, we'd still be using copper chisels and stone tools.

I have no intention of this thread turning into some kind of trolling session. Nothing turns me off faster on a forum.

Thanks for the help. Over and out.
