Padlock shimming and you, and other thoughts
Well, here's the question...
Back on these silly master #3s, which btw, I've gotten better in the last few days going CW using TOK tension with the bent and grinded to size finishing nails that I've recently taken a liking to for small tensors. However, the entire time I have had any Master #3s, I have been unable to shim them. Now looking at the locking dogs (that is the part that bites into the shackle right?) I noticed the sides and top are squared off. I suspect this is why they are eating any shims I make for lunch. I've read they were shimmable, but with the squaring, I don't see how it could cause it to retract. Is this perhaps a new anti-shim feature they've added? or am I just thinking about this incorrectly?
Thanks!
Oh and I've learned two valuable lessons in the past two days: be more careful than careful when cleaning knives (yeah, I already knew this, but got it reinforced cleaning my henkels yesterday VERY SHARP so at least I didn't feel it ) and don't don't don't try to make a cutaway with a mini-hacksaw and hand holding the cylinder, waaaaay too messy cuts. totally wrecked the cylinder. At least it was a cheapie... live and learn...
