Hi Ed, Scot,

Scot, I'm gonna start on your gap. As you mentioned previously, it is 
necessary to locate the parallel ditches very very accurately. I plan on 
using a radial saw so I'm looking down on the work. Will very light cuts with 
a 1/2-inch dado cutter work? Will 1/32 of depth be enuff to seat the 
cylinders?  Do you think that will work or should I find a machine shop with 
a good milling machine? It is the inability to lock the spacing without 
changing the gap spacing that makes me unhappy with my eight-piece straight 
gap. In your design the groove spacing is very critical, screwing that up 
will wreck the gap. I am highly impressed with the general design.

Cheers,
Ralph Zekelman
