Much simpler task are a "big" ask as well, I would like to have some "smooth" 35 bumpers (without the two rabbited lines) NO dice on pulling two of them out "before" they are rabbited and passed on to the plating stage!!!! Seems like a simple task to pull two before the machine and re-insert them back "after". Seems, anyway!!!!
