Roy, I did a measurement using the 21x4 target yesterday and noticed that one of the b values, at about the 85 or 90 step, was way out of line with that
2006-05-22 by Roy Harrington
I d tend to agree -- too many steps can be a detriment. What I like the best is the 21x4, you get 4 measurements for each step and the software averages them.
