[QUOTE="1Moose, post: 1389056, member: 74044"] I'll check that more closely. I was wondering if there was a tiny bit of thinning there also but as it wasn't cut perfectly couldn't measure it well with my calipers. If your eye caught that section also, I suspect it is indeed getting thinner, even if only marginally at this point. Would a conservative approach be to retire those cases? What I don't know is if thinning occurs slowly (and I could monitor it for another firing or two) or if it could go from that state to separation? [/QUOTE]
