I am no EMC guru but I think it's disingenuous to blame the personalities. Jog apparently is hard and people who can program don't know how to do it in a way that wouldn't be an embarrassment. As to tapered threads, I agree with the argument that the hypotenuse pitch allows threading at any angle, so it's more correct. Both issues were discussed extensively and good arguments were given. I would like to bring up the acronym ASAPSIYH: As Soon As Possible, Sooner If You Help. Or at least refrain from trolling. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Try before you buy = See our experts in action!
