[drivingpairs] Re: 2 Questions/Traces &rein rings /lines and stuff

I've really enjoyed reading and learning from all these ideas on the 
pair that is pulling apart, since my husband's pair of minis  started 
doing that quite badly all of a sudden. We tried switching sides, 
changing lengths of reins, changing the pole and its crab part on the 
front of the pole, etc. Nothing seemed to help, so we just gave up for 
awhile and he is doing the CDEs and ADTs with the better of the pair as 
a single (and doing very well actually).
My question right now is: Nobody has addressed the bit. I remember 
hearing once that the bits for a pair must be spot welded so that the 
non-pinch side pieces won't be able to swivel or twist outwards (if that 
is a clear description of it?) Our bits are still not welded and they do 
move. They are regular half-cheek, mullen mouth snaffles with the 
non-pinch sides. I wonder if you all think that could be part of our 
problem?
