Hi really enjoyed watching your video, and I was wondering how did you pull the shaft out? Old ping putters have a steel ball inside the shaft, and it is very difficult to extract the shaft. Would you mind sharing the method? Thank you!
Thank you, appreciate you watching. So I feel like I was pretty lucky in the way that the shaft did have the steel ball in it, but I just heated up the hosel, twisted a few times and it came out without issue. So not exactly sure what cause it to come out so easy but I’ve heard cutting the shaft about 2 inches above and putting it in the freezer has worked
They look much better with the patina. Back in the day we would leave them outside when new to get them to turn dark quicker. 😊
It certainly doesn’t look bad, I just prefer the look of it without! I’m sure it’ll eventually patina again with time
It looks great. Thx, I might try this with one on my old Pings.
@@arturorivera6387 worth a shot! Be sure to give an update if you do 👍🏽
I don't understand why you'd take the oxidation off, it stops glare and in my opinion gives a softer feel
Was an inexpensive project I wanted to try out. Heating it in the oven gave it a really nice finish that has very little glare.
