What was the secret to timing a brake?
I know it really doesn't need to be said again... But Jim at NSS... a-freaking-mazing!!!!
He even spent the time walking me through head-spacing this morning, and told me how to time the brake (did it on friends Bridgeport). Will be back together fully tomorrow night after cerakoting, and range wednesday!
What was the secret to timing a brake?
Having a friend with a Bridgeport... and knowing that one revolution of 5/8x24 is .042"
Jim is an excellent guy to do business with. He's old school....he actually speaks with you! I like that.

Basically you guess... It started at about 1 oclock, dialed in .030 tested, we were then at 9 oclock and did .003 until close, then . 0005-.001 till proper, i went a smidge past, because cerakote is .001 thick. That will be x 2 because two surfaces...
Timing is just making sure all the ports line up where they should be (ie. Top holes are centered and on the top, rather than off at an angle, or on the bottom).
I just placed an order with him, super helpful. Will do business again.
