2 of the thumscrews are WHI theyre really great perfect size to tighten the tube vice without force. The other one is an Aaron Cain thumbscrew its a little smaller and I need a lot of force to get the tube vice tight enough for disposables.

The needle tensioners are awesome I took the idea from Sage OZ and made a 5 bucks 10 minute solution for my machines. Sages are way nicer but so far hey work pretty well its the same precison you have with a needle clip on the Bishop you can look from each side and there is absolutely no sideways movement from the needle. Feels like a precision tool at least for my liking.

Just a quick question. Do you guys use the vertical band to help with "punch" on the downstroke? The only downside I find with this is the needle is always out when the pedal in depressed, so when using small caps the danger of banging the needles is more likely?
