The frog in the new point form tool I received with my double slip switch created an angle that's much too sharp so the ends don't mate properly. Has anyone else had this problem or am I doing something wrong?

(I resorted to my older #6 point form tool and used that instead. Works fine).

Hi Bill,

Are you sure you are using the slot marked "Frog" and not the end marked "Toad"? The toad slot is for forming the points near the middle of a slip switch.
