Thanks, I so appreciate your affirmation. Mr P
Now, which rail thickness is the optimum for K66 cushions to play the bestMr Penguin said:
as I discovered a long time ago, the three different rail thickness's even though the point of the cushion is the same, play differently between each set of rails It's all about rail thickness plus the angle of the bevel plus the cushions used= the profile of body of cushion behind the point of the cushion which gives the best rebound and speed Glen

So which rail thickness is optimal for the K-66 and K-55?
Think about when all rails were the same thickness, 1 3/4", with a step down to account for the thickness of cloth, so...1 11/16", then depending on which cushions you're using, that decides the bevel to set the nose of the cushion height correctly. Thinner rails didn't appear until much later, when manufactures decided it was cheaper to make the rails a little thinner instead of purchasing thicker wood to net 1 3/4"Dead Crab said:

PS, Which cushions came first, the K55 or K66?
