What did you build today?
My first attempt at a refinish. Now what shaft... Hmm.
- Edited
Apex 21 irons. Switched from A flex Recoil Dart graphite to Nippon NS Pro steel, R flex hard stepped once.
TheBlade Hand sanded, then did gentle wire wheel and polished with a sisal wheel.
Finally got this down to a nice brass finish.
Nice job! How many hours do you estimate you spent on this? I have an old Carbite putter that I like, but it's
beat up and needs some TLC. Trying to decide whether I have the skills, or if I should just send it to Continental
Golf and pay $60 plus shipping....
Got those PF-85 shafts installed into some Royal Collection fairway heads. Same deal as Sonartec, just the ones from Japan.
Also 3D printed a shaft extension. We'll see how that turns out.
AdamMH Also 3D printed a shaft extension
I've 3D printed many shaft extentions. You need to make them rather thick walled and taper the tickness were the extender goes from ID to OD for them not to break .
Luc_Van_Daele Interesting, I did make it relatively thick but no taper. I left it sticking out a little and let the epoxy form a fillet between the end of the shaft and the change in diameter of the print. Guess I'll find out soon enough!
The change in diameter is a stress point, so putting a taper inside the extender at that point strengtens that weak point.
Or just buy one for $2.99
Another driver.
Snake Eyes 953T, 9*, 206gr. on a Penley Tour Light S/flex @47". Going to get a few more rounds in it looks like, so going to have some fun. I hope.
