we grind our cranks carefully to a slide fit. it's easier to assemble and the crank can go where it wants and the assembly has no tensions.

Yep that little hot plate is the one that was used by Elvis's manager used for the dancing chickens. I found a stickleback in the sludge trap!

That hot plate is the property of Custom Made.
I turn it on and threaten to press employees fingers on it when they are not working fast enough...and Anthonys when he is dancing around picking stuff up in CM HQ
