...sure. You go with what you know, and I'll go with my experience. If they're different, there's no sense getting in a kerfuffle over it.
If you really are brazing up all those frames, I'd be curious how you set them prior to use. 39 frames is probably not enough to buy a frame table.
You really just grabbing onto the dropouts and giving them a yank sideways ? I guess it cuts down on your tool investment. All you need is some Campy dropout adjusters and you're good to go.
