Since we're on the topic of flush SELs...
I really wanted to just be happy with my V9 Noob 116610LN from Intime - and not try to pick it to pieces - but I guess I'm just incapable of that.
I think my SELs look like most of the V9 pics I'm seeing here - but looking at gen SELs I think they should be recessed more - mine are damn close to flush.
Is this a glaring defect that I should seek to remedy somehow, or should I just quit being so effing picky and forget about it?
Alright my young Palawan.
This is is what you do. Balls to the wall approach I was meaning to publish in the guide but never got around to it
you get 1.7/8[whatever#] spring bars
then you get Aroldite. Yeah you can see where it’s all going... this ain’t for the weak heartwd
so, next up you take the old spring bars out and put the new ones in. Play around the different sizes. Once you know which give you the best SEL, you keep those and discard the rest. Next you’ll notice that SEL wiggles. That’s to be expected since they are not 2mm springbars. What you want to do next is using a very thin tube of premixed A and B Aroldote and insert it into four of the SEL spring bar openings. Keep the SEL in perfect position manually whilst this is all happening. Don’t worry too much about the mess as Acetone will make quick work of the glue that got places you didn’t want it to. Do not underestimate how long that shit takes to harden. Take good amount of time to do this once. And do it right
repeart for the other end
now dont f@$& it up!
