Hi List-
I've been experimenting with socket modification techniques and am curious
to see what other's typically do to reduce the fit of a check socket. I'm
interested in knowing what percentage you reduce your mold by per sock
ply. For instance, if someone fits into a check socket in a 3-ply sock,
how much do you reduce the mold?
I'm curious to see what other people have found to be most successful for
an accurate fit. Any information is appreciated. Thank you in advance.
Have a wonderful day!
