I've been running a lot of ACL stuff and they seem to have a better handle on their consistency.
2-3 boxes.....over a tenth? can't see where it is that critical. 10 degrees in air temp would change the measurement...

well, point made, now i'll be going over bearings with a pin mic....hehehe


build was done in 2006
