63742 Andy Tait <andy@f...> Nov-09-1998 adjustable mouthed infills

Belated addendum to the discussion about adjustable mouths on infill
planes.  Jeff Gorman is right about tightening the mouth using parallel
shims: you can also open it [and increase the pitch] with a shim at the
top of the blade ... no irreversible filing required.
