How a nickel can make a valuable improvement

Yes, that is correct.

That's a great suggestion! I'll look into getting brass washers. Thank you.

I just got Bearpaws and I have not been able to level my table without using some playing cards under the feet. They are threaded but Stringreen made a comment above that implies if I need to do this (as I did with my VPI mini feet previously) I'm not adjusting the paws correctly. If this is the case I would appreciate either him, or anybody else, to comment on what I should be doing differently.

The Bearpaws should all be screwed tight up against the bottom of the table. See which foot/feet need a shim- I used a nickel under each footer only on the right side of the table to eliminate movement and bring table to level. Try a dime under each foot if a nickel is too thick. Use a good level to check for exact level front to back and side to side.

Sberger...My Bearpaws came with threads, and also with threaded brass washers. I threaded two of the threaded washers between the Bearpaws themselves and and the bottom of the turntable. I leveled the turntable exactly using a carpenters level by rotating the Bearpaw which raised/lowered them on their threads, then tightened one of the brass washers against the turntable, and then tightened one of the brass washers against the Bearpaw. This provides a very tight connection and a spectacular upgrade.
