from overshift to shaft shimming set-up

alright, so... I went ahead and adjusted the overshift by adding shims, which in this case are small precision washers under the heads of the stop screws. Backing out the staked, slot-screws was the hardest part, next to scrounging for suitable washers... but that's what makes all this fun, hmm? I b...
