Iron family CPM
4-PW on one band. The shaft that jumps is the story, not the 7 you love.
Washington Square · Ingham frequency bay
The sign says soles. The clamp counts cycles.
Sole Width Fit started as a grind stall. The stall failed honestly. What stayed is a clamp, a tap, and a readout that writes cycles per minute so an iron family is a band, not a drawer of letters. Lansing winters made flex tags look like weather reports for a city nobody lives in. We tap. We do not sell S, R, or X as a personality.

Capitol winter
A cold shop lies in cycles
January in this building can sit at 58°F before the boiler remembers its job. Carbon shafts read different in that air. We write shop temp on every slip so a July number is not asked to testify about a freeze. Wichita has a frequency shop; they are not this clamp. We still count taps in Lansing because the letters on the shaft never did.
Taps we take
Four bands, one clamp
Driver cycles
A longer clamp lie. We still write 5" and a second reading at 7" so the argument has two numbers.
Soft-step matching
Playing down a cycle on purpose. We will do it if the band asks. We will not do it as a superstition.
Clamp length notes
If a prior shop used 4" or 6", their number is a dialect. We translate; we do not pretend it is ours.
What this bay refuses
No flex-letter sermons. No “tour stiff.”
Iowa City maps sole width on film. We count cycles. If you came for a grind because the sign still says soles, we will say so in the first minute and send you to College Street’s cousins — or just send you home with a frequency slip.

Hold a tap hour
Monday through Thursday the clamp runs 7:30 to 3:30. Friday we lock at 1:00. Weekend the phosphor sleeps. Write desk@solewidthfit.top. Rafi answers; the readout does not book itself.
