: Besides, it's sort of your fault. The double recess was too good an idea to
: not implement in the Guillemot.

: It would have been helpful if you had presented it in early 2000, though.

oh, yeah??(hehe) how abt june 1999:

the dwg link is no good tho:

this approach gets more marginal in narrower yaks in that a fair amount(2in plus of side space is used to make the ditch, meaning more vertical sides or with very narrow yaks, no room for ditch at all - it would resolve right to the sheer.
and lucky you're a slim guy.

: Architects, sheesh! ;) Give the "Owner" a great idea so the
: "Contractor" has to tear out all his previous work just to make
: the "Owner" happy.

trouble in this case is the open contract betw owner and contractor!
