That's what I was referring to in one of my posts when I said a similar
tool is not for the untrained. (Didn't use that word, but I'm too lazy
to go back and find it.)

I remember that someone said that but I, too was too lazy to go back to
look. (-: Now we know.

Still, it is the right tool for the job with a dash of OJT. I had an
unadjustable unit before I picked up the Sperry and that one *really*
sucked. This one's a whole lot better although the adjustment dial feels a
little flimsy. Not sure it's going to hold up but I also doubt I will be
using it every day.
