ode sdandrea1 pm KCee as he has it now. When he's finished with it he'll mail it to you. $10 is what everyone has been donating for the cost of shipping.

KCee ode So I think I'm done with testing and just posted a review in the Equipment forum. Really like this head a lot. I guess sdandrea1 has opted out of testing for now so it's up for grabs!
colej Ordered a new head for a guy I work with. I’m wondering if they’ve had issues with shafts not bonding to the adapter? Check out the inside of the adapter
Taki27 colej I ordered 4 adapters and there were a couple of differences, most notably that 2 had the old SMT lines. The other adapters are VERY smooth inside, so proper bonding could have been an issue.
pellmell colej A critical step before assembly is cleaning the hosel to remove manufacturing oils. I use a cotton swab soaked in Isopropyl Alcohol
colej garyt1957 Nothing wrong with it, The inside of the bore is scored like the old SMT drivers used to be.
colej Taki27 I’ve always been a firm believer in roughing up any surface that epoxy bonds with, including brass shims.
Taki27 colej the 2 smooth adapters didn’t rough up easily. I had to use a random piece that I found in a Dremel box to really rough it up. I’m not a huge fan of the collared ferrules. To me I would rather have that area for an additional epoxy bond. I usually use some shafting beads so centering the shaft is rarely an issue.
