Thumbs up Quality Machining

I meant to comment on the installation tool included with the adapter. The machining is so precise that the tool did not readily separate from the adapter when I opened the package.

Reminded me of the metal cubes a mechanical engineering prof used to demo cohesion. The faces of the cubes were so precisely machined that they "stuck" together like magnets with no adhesive whatsoever.

That is quality machine work. Exact fit with no wiggle or play!
