For $2.08, you can get a 44 tooth steel blade from Home Depot. Hell, I'll send you one of my 4 hacksaws.

Statistics show that 1 in 9 people that own a table saw will injure themselves within their lifetime. I see this as being an avenue to doing that.

Extreme, tho. :laugh:

Well today was almost a disaster

I went to UPS and picked up my shafts this morning and got home and got started reshafting. Come to find out the hard way the Taylormade LT2 require a special ferrule to fit over the lip on the very end of the neck. Before I ordered everything I called golf smith and even e-mailed Taylormade and they both said a regular .370 ferrule would work. So I called one of the custom fit techs at TM this morning and he said he would send me the ferrules as soon as possible but couldn’t guarantee that I get them by Fri, which is a problem because I playing in a tournament on Sun. So I called around and found a golf galaxy that had them took the 1 hr drive and picked them up. Got home and found out the are a lot harder to install than I thought. After you get everything epoxyed up you have to almost snap them into place pulling them towards the housel. The first two were hard because I had so much epoxy they didn’t want to set in tight. On a few of them I had to place the clubhead in my chest put the butend against the wall and twist and pull the ferrule to get it set in. Now that I think of it the ferrules were very easy to get on the shaft and they slid up and down a bit, maybe I should have snapped them on the housel first and then installed the head and ferrule as one piece. All I know is there on now and I will be cutting the shafts tomorrow and drinking beer tonight because I don’t have to work until Tuesday.
