[QUOTE="Sporkman"] Thanks, Jerry. I now have .015" flat instead of the feather edge or what I called a razor edge. That's all I can give it, and that's pushing some other limits of design for what I need the part to do.[/QUOTE] How big is the radius? The .015" flat will probably be strong enough if it grows quickly. At the very least, it's a hell of an improvement over 0! Jerry Steiger Tripod Data Systems "take the garbage out, dear"
