Playing with this V-3
CYA friends:
We're in an interesting new world with this new V-3.
We used to search for higher and higher rate springs.......
With this thing being so beautifully free, I'm now searching for smaller and smaller rate springs.

This is for Az_Speed, and other creative folks who do their own work, or would like to.
The pin of the V-3 is hard.....which means it's wear proof.
And I used to have to grind pins like this...
But this time I reduced this pin tip using the two diamond needle files Jeff Patterson gave me...
And it was so easy, and so much more accurate than the way I used to have to grind hard pins..
__________________________
I've got more I want to say.......
Too much for right now, as I've got something I have to do this afternoon...
But I'll get back to it.....
Again, this unbelievably free V-3 is a whole new world to explore.
There's a lot that I'm liking about this action........
But this "free" thing is one of the most impressive....it's opened up some new doors...
Your friend, Bill Calfee

You know, I ain't used to fancy tools....like these diamond needle files...
I have fought hand grinding hard pin tips for years....
And these diamond needle files made it so easy, and accurate...
Unless I'm mistaken, this is the width the V-3 will come standard with now.....or very close to it.
