Title: Loose limb pin
Post by: GregD on April 07, 2015, 05:40:00 PM

I was looking for opinions on what to do with a takedown recurve that has a loose fit on the guide pin. Would you fill the existing hole in with epoxy and redrill the hole or are there better solutions? Any input appreciated. Thanks, Greg

If it isn't really loose a bit of wax might take up enough slack. Wax works well on a slightly to loose fit in the locket socket takedown system.

Or spray some clear coat poly into the hole. It will take a few shots but it will fill in the hole a wee bit.

Is not wax a little soft for that Jess...?
