I'm glad you're aboard Bill, I know Ican use your expertise, one quick question, a switch I own peeks just a little from the handle, when i took it apart the pin hole was ovaled,wouldn't this lend creedance to the age old argument of storing a switch open so thespring doesn't put pressure on the pin thereby putting pressure on the liner?
