Excellent question, Mike. Like you, I always tried to adjust the right
side gap for the width that I was seeking. Someone in the last 3 years
stated that Oppegard strippers should be adjusted to give your target
strip on the left side. Were you the one who proposed that the left side
was the proper way?
