It seemed relatively consistent across those changes so I didn't bother going to deep into that. You can factor in roughness, certainly something pretty significant if I were to sand cast it myself!
I am certain I was not using it either to its full potential, or even correctly, but it was still easy to see what changes had what effects and through that optimise the basic design.
Thanks - that looks interesting
