DG - would you agree that Evershed is basically focused on a 'true' horizontal hinge motion? (his CCC) I like his visual of it from overhead, very much the 'feel' IMO to what a split grip drill shows, and IMO one of the areas Ballard was really getting at (even though I don't think he described it well).
EdZ and DG. I don't mean to butt in on your exchange but I want to add my observations. I have some of Evershed's stuff and what I think he is trying to impart, besides the 3 imperatives, is...
1-Delivery Line-Prep-Roll
2-Horizontal Hinge
3-FINISH SWIVEL
Evershed is always talking about keeping the hands moving left with a flat left and bent right wrist. A flowing motion. EdZ, are the three points I mentioned above your "true horizontal hinge motion"?
DG,is Tomasellos pattern actually a 4 barrel stroke variation?
True horizontal hinge as distinguished from swivel as hinge action. I don't really see much emphasis on your points 1 and 3 in the material I have seen - mostly the focus is bent right/flat left. Clearly he is familiar with the machine, and acknowledges Homer and TT, so I'm not suggesting he ignores those important points at all. I like his 'six minute' guide. A good reference to TGM concepts.
