An action that I advocated a couple of weeks ago here on the Forum. It made my double bender Hipshot much more stable. It also eliminated most of what steel players call "cabinet drop." There's no doubt in my mind that that felt is a problem with double benders. Not so much with just B benders, but it's a good idea to have the baseplate coupled tightly to the body.

I think your post was the one that inspired me to do it, so I owe you credit for that good idea.
