    I believe it would have been much easier to read the narrative in the patent if it had been written my Mr. Temple himself rather than the attorney.

    Must be a really tough banana. Maybe it's a GMO variety that's been engineered to not bruise in shipment.
    If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.
