Well Chad, My MJ LOG #11 shafts have no markings on the inserts. And the inserts for my microflights are glued in. But it seems that I "machined" some down,just cant remember what size. I chucked them in a drill motor and wore them down a bit. works good if you go slow.
Wish I was more help for you.
Chuck

Thanks Chuck. Just wondered if someone knew what Aluminum size would fit instead of guessing.I'll probably just take a shaft in to the archery shop and go thru their stash.

2117 is just a little to big, but is about right to cover to the out side of the shaft also.
