G'day Jim,
Uhmm, I've not considered doing that mainly because I was trying for
a sphere and thereby getting an all over null. However, We'll be doing one
more session this afternoon and when it stabilises overnight I'll try and
get some numbers. I can't guarantee my technique though at that close to
null all over. I'll post details in the morning.
Cheers
John
I think the old pros pushed their thumb-nails onto a cooled pitch sample for
1 minute with ca. 1 lb force. If the dent came out about 1/4" they figured
they were good to go.
So you can REALLY see what works with pitch hardness, temperature, TOT/MOT,
stroke type & length, etc., etc. ad infinitum, try taking and posting some
Foucault measurements along with the pretty pictures which are SO open to
interpretation.
