I'd be very interested in what you observe. I haven't yet volunteered for
part of an order as I planned to get an entire bolt for myself (I have
several plans to try out, mostly large cages that accommodate separate
mics). But if there is a need for someone to order half a bolt to make the
order compete, I'll be glad to pick up the long ends.
