This thread is really awesome guys keep it up! I know it sucks for you waterloo i've been in those shoes more than once. The silver lining is you know it will be right from here on out.

We ended up at 0.012" instead of 0.014" because of a bad reading on a newly purchased, expensive digital depth gauge and had to re-cut again to ensure they were all the same height. -- I will never again use a fancy expensive digital gauge to machine something, but instead go back to relying solely on my 1980's mechanical gauge that has never failed me. - the goal was 0.014" and still is in my book. todays digital technology just don't hold a candle to old-school precision clock works.

We decided to keep it at 0.012" instead of using thicker shimms.
