Chicken dinner for the first to tell me how many followers are in this overlay; the basis of which is my original follower from 2010.
There's one that isn't in the overlay because the departure angle isn't the same and it's the one that I get reports on of shaving lead "when adjusted properly." I'm not in any way substantiating those claims, as I've not experienced it for myself, but the point is, the reports I hear of what has worked best are in the overlay above.
So why have there been feed/cycle issues? I covered this in a prior post about an extreme departure from foundational information. The belt-sander-scandal in St. George was a kneejerk reaction to a claim that wasn't properly vetted, and it's part of what blossomed into at least four rabbit holes leading to things that don't need to be adjustable.
