>(BTW, has anyone ever discovered a good adapter made from >generic (easily found at home) materials?). Anyone >with interest, please feel free to reply with your >thoughts. Marc I found a round Crouton Can in the cabinet a few months ago, don't remember the brand, (it's in my car and car is across town at them moment) but it was one of those cardboard things, with a thin aluminum top and bottom and silver inside, I cut away the inside of the top and bottom, leaving the aluminum lip for a good mating surface and structure, it fits PERFECTLY and stands about 6" tall. Works really well. (btw, put the rest of the croutons in a baggie or you WILL get in trouble when she finds them where you left them on the counter in your glee and excitement of finding such a perfect "tool" ;) On your sync idea, I would think it would work if you had 2 of those cool expensive ones with the dial gauge, but wouldn't there be the tiniest manufacturing variations in any of these (I use the cheap little "bob in the tube one) enough to throw off a reading. Is it really that exacting that we have to worry about millimeters difference in reading? (I'm asking that, not being sarcastic) can it make a big difference?
