Loft Bench Lab Allentown mill floor

Visit clock

From the door to the re-check, in one sitting

A jaw hour is not a tour of the brick. It is a sequence. If we skip a step, the mill ticket is fiction.

  1. 00:00

    Bag on the mill table, stamp log

    We copy every relevant stamp before the first clamp. You can talk while we write. We will not start bending during the inventory.

  2. 00:12

    First seating, delivered loft and lie

    Each nominated head goes in the jaws. Two numbers, sometimes three if lie is the complaint. No launch yet — the gauge speaks first.

  3. 00:28

    The argument on paper

    We show you the delta. If it is noise, we stop. If it is a different club, we propose a bend size and name the risk on cast necks.

  4. 00:40

    Metal moves, or it does not

    Bends happen in small bites. After each bite the head comes off, goes back on, and we read again. Graphite dust gets wiped before the second seating.

  5. 00:55

    Launch window, then the ledger

    Enough balls to see whether flight followed the gauge. You leave with mill paper: stamp, delivered, lie, bend, second reading, launch note.

How long the jaws stay busy

A Stamp Audit is shorter than an Iron Ledger

Measure-only visits finish near forty minutes. A single-head bend with re-check fills an hour. An iron ledger is a mill afternoon — we will say that before you drive in from Easton. Saturday is the short hour; we will not pretend a whole set fits before one o’clock.

What we will not do mid-visit

  • Skip the second seating to “save time”
  • Bend a cracked hosel because the stamp annoyed you
  • Turn the hour into a swing lecture — that is a different shop
  • Quote grind as the first change on a wedge
