would say it's fine, even if it's a bit on the edge of lean....

maybe go +2 to +5 on the mains and see if you get more of a grey ring on the bottom of the insulator?

not a tractor pull expert by any means, just a road racer....

Looks good to me. Like fresh baked bread.

Nothing lasts, nothing is finished, and nothing is perfect.
