Hi Dirk, Thanks for the polariscope info. I will give it a try. As for the lightening cavities in the triple tree, I am eliminating them altogether. The weight savings is not as important as the safety factor. I already made some lightened clamps for my customer, and he will have a chance to test them for a while, in the meantime we will stick with the heavy solid version.
