I am planning on machining a putter head and couldn’t figure out how to attach the shaft, so thanks! I’m going to order the shaft so I can measure the tip diameter. Then I will know the diameter to mill the hole opening. Can I ask what kind of epoxy you used to attach the shaft? Also, I am wondering what kind of solvent you used to wet the double sided tape so the handle would slide on so easily? Thanks in advance for any input or advice! I am excited to make my own putter. I work in a machine shop and can program and have access to 303 stainless steel and all the tooling I need to do this project so I’m looking forward to getting started on my design and program.
whee yay my first re-shaft. I didn't have a new, flawless putter shaft so I used a new iron shaft. It is an A/R combo flew (a stepped FST 115) instead of Stiff, but then again I didn't just cut down the butt -- I cut off about 6 & 1/4" off the tip, stiffening it up plenty. I was going to leave either 6" or 9" between the hosel and the first step, and 9" felt flexy whereas 6" felt more like the original (flexing/gauging by hand, which: I did used to gauge roughly this way in archery with some accuracy over time). And I cut about 4" off the butt so that the whole putter was the original, comfortable length. The new shaft weighed the same as the original once cut. I got a nice Golf Pride classic putter grip since this is a vintage bronze Tour Model 103. An off brand I suppose, kinda like the budget new shaft, but a lot nicer than the pot metal Tour Model 103 of today. Totally different shape and weight distribution -- this bronze putter is the best all-feel, all-me, non-mallet putter I've ever used. Love it. Well, it might technically be a mallet, but very light comparatively. Thanks!
Thanks... my beloved vintage brass/bronze/berylliumCu (something like that) putter has the weird, short, little hosel and made me wonder if it was a different procedure
I have an old candle stick holder, the putter part has broke off from base. It's all putter. I would like to know who I would take it to in order to get it attached Thankyou
Could you put a different kind of hossle on a taylor made Spider putter that has a straight shaft into the head. Idk the correct terminology but I prefer a bent hossle where the shaft meets the head. Similar to the putter in your hand in the beginning of this video. i dont want to pay for a new putter when i have a taylor made spider already just with the wrong hossle shape.
is a EVNROLL putter the same as this i was looking in case i want to change my new putter shaft to a double bend callaway shaft i not see evnroll with a double bend shaft
Solid video man. I appreciate your relaxed vibe. Feels like watching a friend
Great video! About to do 2 putters next week as soon as the shafts come in. Thanks!

Great informative video. Be cool to see a breakdown of your workshop.

Hi any tips on pulling a putter shaft on a head that has a pvd type finish? Worried when I heat up the hosel I could do some cosmetic damage. Thanks.
Nice video mate, bet your a very popular neighbour 👍😂
Could you send a picture of the stuff that you use for mounting putter head and also grip?
I have a Ping adjustable length putter which I hate. I'm having trouble finding a source to either buy a graphite or composite shaft. Any suggestions?
Any idea how to remove a single bend shaft that is glued directly into the head?
I have an old candle stick holder, the putter part has broke off from base. It's all putter. I would like to know who I would take it to in order to get it attached
Thankyou
Excellent video

Are all tip diameters the same on putters? I have seen putters without hosels. I am guessing you can not change shafts without a hosel.
How do you reshaft a putter where the shaft goes directly into the head of putter
Will gorilla glue epoxy work alright for putting the head on?
is a EVNROLL putter the same as this i was looking in case i want to change my new putter shaft to a double bend callaway shaft i not see evnroll with a double bend shaft
i never changed a putter shaft i built all my clubs but the putter.but i going to custom this one i did custom my putter
Nice video man. Thanks!
what was the solvent used when gripping??
I'd assume some sort of mineral spirits, or maybe a low pct. alcohol
It’s just called “grip solvent” it’s sold at any golf shop
were did you buy the black shaft?
KBS sells black putter shafts
Very cool shop!
excellent, thanks
Have the same putter in the brushed chrome finish, will never get rid!!!!
I would only apply the flame to the shaft only so you don't discolor your putter.
Yes, fellas pay attention. He’s teaching a valuable lesson always prep your tip before insertion.
haha naw fr..good video though
