With all due respect to Craig him saying somthing doesn't make it law. As I remember it the committee agreed that a cluster bot would count as one of your entries but I don't remember it being extra to the limit of three rollers. Having said that my memory isn't what it used to be and it never was t...
My understanding is that you are allowed three rollers and a walker. If you enter a flea in a cluster that would counts as one of the rollers unless of course it is a walker.

Simon I think you will find that the shaft is 3mm diameter with a flat on it. The dimension you show as 2.5mm is to the flat which is probably correct. I had just been opening out the two holes to M2 on one of mine the day before I read your article. I used a 1.6 mm drill to clear the old thread the...
