bad9 I had a $2 offer(eBay)accepted on a OG Maltby Trouble Out 3w. With shipping it cost me about $35. Since it's virtually unsellable I put it on the Project X Cypher 40 5.0 pullout from my Rogue Heavenwood. It's going to need a 1" extension and I'll try it at 43.5" come spring.
sdandrea1 Subsonic Anyone ever used the UST Competition 65 iron shaft Yes, in a set of Dynacraft irons. Good value, nothing special about them.
sdandrea1 I give you my version FrankenStrat. This is the best playing, best sounding CHEAPASS guitar I've ever built. Obviously gave no care to looks, but I'm in love with the tone and playability. All spare parts.
Rickochet sdandrea1 I give you my version FrankenStrat. I like the color. Good for playing Gayazz Blues. 🤣
Jelopster Got two in the works: Refinishing a Fat Lady Swings - adding a plumber’s neck and then will paint. The face and first “step” along the top line will be copper, the rest black. Niblick Chipper - This is the one I got for a $1 bid (and $10 shipping) on EBay with the intent of it being my wife’s. She hasn’t used it so I pulled it and will give it a go. This will go on a standard steel shaft.
sdandrea1 AdamMH you'd be right at home in just about any punk band Blues bar..........old beat up guitars are cool.... 😉
bad9 I might get a Maltby KE4 S 9 iron head bent to 67° lie (Dana Upshaw fit me into 67° lie on my putter), load in a couple of 14g weights and make a 35” chipper along the lines of the Ping Chipr. Totally pointless but a reasonably cheap experiment
Jelopster bad9 I’m noodling on getting an older Ping 9I in maroon dot (+5 lie) and doing the same thing
ode bad9 KE4 S 9 Nice thing about that model is the two external weight ports! I almost went with em over the Max, but the sole design of the Max suits me better

Subsonic Got all of the pieces together for my project...5,6,8,p,s Callaway X-12s, Midsize Winn Dri Tac LT Grips, & UST Competition 65 Shafts. The Schoolhouse 9 Half Set.
sdandrea1 Subsonic Send those parts down to me and I'll do the reshaft/assembly for ya. Last tee arts&crafts activity. 😉
bad9 ode I have the Max set from Jeff. If I do the experiment the 2 weight ports is why I figure to use the S.
bad9 ode If one of you cheap SOB's here would buy my cheap crap I could do more cheap assed experiments😉
ode bad9 got a 5-pw, aw set off WRX for reasonable and already bent flat so I jumped on it. To me, and I think Jeff commented on this, they are a KE4 S with a modified sole!
bad9 ode I had Jeff bend the Max to 5° gaps starting at 50° with the GW. In 4-5 rounds in cool, damp fall air they worked well for me. Hard to wait 6 months before I can get them out again for the whole season.
