    Jim when spine aligning I did buy the bearings and PVC coupler you have and it works great. When I rotate the shaft it keeps ending in the same place which is the spine of the shaft. I also glue it at 12:00 o’clock. To the iron head in this case..! I think I’m doing it correct. Thanks for the tip on a great tool.! A must have in the club builders shop.

    Hobby club builder here who is probably more like that Monkey you described? Collared ferrules wow. Use a nail to coat the inside of the hosel and shaft and twist them together. Use shafting beads every time. Your way is much cleaner and has less epoxy to clean up, which I like. Learned something new with the tape for drying. Have built over 10 sets and luckily have not had any heads flying down the fairway yet. Subscribed, always willing to learn something better. Thanks, Sir.

    I like to use Golfworks Tour Set Plus Beaded Epoxy 4900 psi @ 24 hrs. 2 to 1 mix. Also abraiding past the hozel on steel shafts opens them up to corrosion! Squirt a shot of Epoxy-gon on a Kim wipe cleans the hozel and head really nice.

    Jim...I do things the ‘Dana’ way...split grips so can swing weight/MOI last. GW V1003 50/50 epoxy ...5 min set time, 1 club at a time. Always abraid up under ferrule a tad, light epoxy swipe, slide on with light heat....push on with head. When tip id is big enough, go old time with lead powder and cork. No more tip pins except small diam lead for Steel Fiber 110s or some graphites. Most all hi quality steels FLO with label down. KBS...gotta FLO them. Love how you explain stuff...

    I'm coming to this video a few years later. I'm about to install new TT XP 95 Taper shafts in my Honma irons. I plan to use 3M DP810 epoxy which is faster curing. I will still give them the full 24hrs full cure but I will be using an epoxy gun & mixing nozzles. i think the work time for the DP810 is around 10 minutes but beyond that, it's probably starting to cure. Have you any experience of the 3M Epoxy at all and should I use the mixing nozzles or reduce wastage and just mix it myself? The mixing nozzles should allow me to speed up the process a little to give me more work time in installing all 7 x shafts. Any advice greatly appreciated from Scotland here🙂

      @@g.9174 Sometimes, based on pressure from the epoxy, the ferrel will begin to separate from the hosel. So to inhibit that from happening, you can tape the ferrel to the hosel will the epoxy dries and that should prevent the ferrel from moving. By the way, it is ferrel creep, I believe, and not hosel creep.

    Hi Jim. Sorry if this is not the correct spot to ask, but I wanted to get your opinion on something. I just started building some clubs here and there and while turning down a ferrule, I noticed some tape I had wrapped around my graphite shaft was missing and there was a slight sanding scar right above the ferrule. It looks to be only on the surface, but I wanted to ask you if you think this will compromise the integrity of the shaft. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated and thank you so much for all the great videos. It’s your fault I am trying to build clubs now!! 👍🏻👍🏻 Hope everyone on this channel is staying safe and healthy. All the best. Tim

    Hey Jim, love the videos, by far your experience shows through technique , knowledge etc so I’m confident in all you speak about clubs, period. Ok, ?#1- I have the Callaway ‘19 Apex Pro , same as this video, I’d like to put KBS Tour V 110 S shafts in them. The KBS Tour V is a .355 taper and the Apex Pro is a .370 taper tip, can I make this work or am I forced to choose a different club because I absolutely love KBS Tour V 110 S shafts. I had them on ‘14 Apex pros and loved them. I’m sure there’s some adapter so I’ll also go through all your videos, ( maybe answer my own question). But also I’m wondering if the spine is supposed to go on bottom of shaft- back of hosel- or top of shaft top of hosel aligned with the toe-? At 12:00 of course. Any and all info is greatly appreciated . Thank you for all your videos and input !!! Sincerely, Steve K.

    Stupid question: how do you put assembled clubs to rest until epoxy hardens? upright or downright ? sometimes I use pulled shaft when old glue is removed they lose something in diameter and they twirl around the hosel, which may result in losing the alignment. How do you put clubs to rest?

  • @vic_0315
    @vic_0315 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hi Jim. Quick question, instead of using tip weight, is it ok to pour tungsten power into the hosel then add epoxy into it and mix em up at the bottom of the hosel, and then install the shaft with new epoxy applied on the shaft just like you did in the video?
    Because I’m doing MOI matching instead of swingweight matching which requires much more precise weighting, and it’s nearly impossible to have the exact right weight with tip weights sometimes, whereas using tungsten powder I can get it spot on.

When I used a torch it literally either swelled up and popped out or became so soft I had to take like 2-3 of those wire brushes you use to get the shaft cleaned out.

    does anyone use the PETRONIO’S #8 RUBBER CEMENT to install grips(instead of the conventional way)- it allows you to just blow the grip off and re use the grip anytime you want. Its handy especially when/ if you wanna shorten or add length without having to just cut the grip off and install a new grip every time. I am constantly tinkering with length/swing weight so I have some grips I've taken off and put back on 6-7 times with no problems. Its really simple instead of sticky tape you use just plain masking tape-the glue bonds to the tape after a few minutes. You have to use something other than a Lamkin grip- most of those will still blow up(with the air hose) and have to be discarded. I use golf pride and super soft-no problems installing and re installing. It only takes about 30-50 lbs of pressure to blow the grip off when installed via the cement and I've never had a grip break lose from the glue during play. Just search for it online-a place here in Memphis sells it by the gallon. A gallon should last a few dozen set builds at least.
