Also that line where you say snugly??? I never said the sleeve should ever fit tight, many of them do not, in fact in the thread I did about how to fix these, if you look very close at that pic you will see that the tube DOES NOT fit snugly into the old hole...
The object of this is to make things better, with a simple easy fix, which is why I seriously don't understand the huge flap about this thread...I mean seriously some of you are actually debating whether to take 5 minutes and add a spacer to take up excess slop, that actually amazes me...:confused:
BTW your scales will not "Fall apart" but depending on the tolerance you build with, you can start to have problems as soon as the pins start to loosen up, which all pins loosen up...
Edit: Phatman was posting as I was, but his idea above might also be a viable option for your Torrey....Great idea BTW Russ !!
