Yeah, that's clearly what I'm seeing, too. An inch and/or working with cup...but not 3-4".
100 over is not a bad place to be. 25 to 50 over is probably perfect. But if you were 100 over, why in hades would anyone recommend 4 inches of...
What were you turning when they were 24??
How short were you on RPM? And how much pitch did you add?
