Had a club tipped, gripped on Friday evening... its Monday and its still slightly loose. Likely not going to set?
Let’s Talk Club Building
Doesn’t sound good. Stupid question: does it have an adapter that’s loose?
The shaft moves inside the adapter. Its the Paradym Super Hybrid. It isn't real loose but still visible movement. Wonder if setting it in front of a space heater would help?

Which is why I'm on Amazon Prime. Being able to order stuff and know when it will arrive.
I'll order books to read in the coming weekend. Or cancel if they can't deliver.
Nope. Sounds like a bad epoxy mix. Take it to where you had it done and have them fix it right.
I can't guarantee they will get it right lol
I have some epoxy ordered. Think I'm going to give it a go myself
I always seem to run out right when i want to do something.
Just make sure you get all of the old epoxy off the shaft, and clean out the inside of the adapter.

Always. I try to keep backups, but with the move this year and not getting my workspace done until last month, I totally blanked on reloading.

That doesn't help me today though.
Luckily uncle Bezos can get it to you by tomorrow..

Not here he can’t.
the shaft was easy to clean with light sand paper. It looks good. I think I'm going to order a new adapter because getting thing clean will always be a fault in my mind when I swing the club
Wait wut?!

Yup. Two days on practically everything. Even with Prime.
I guess that’s not too bad. I remember waiting weeks and wondering things would ever show as a kid so 2 days is minimal. Lol
No need really. Do you have a Dremel with one of those little cylinder sanding drums? If not I used to do it by hand. Wrap some sandpaper around a pencil, then get it down inside the hosel / adapter and twist.
To really get it cleaned out do I need to let it fully dry or will it come out this way as well?
Those look really good with the ferrules.
I would say if it is still moving it isn’t going to set. I would take it apart clean everything and use some new epoxy.
I've got the shaft clean and sanded the end just a little... enough to know I scratched it a little. I have epoxy on the way so I'll update ya when I get it done. Thanks for your help
I’ve got an itch to build something up. But no real needs of desires. 
Should be fine.

Me too. I stumbled across a SF i95r flex shaft for an 8i I forgot I had. I am either going to put it into a wedge or a ZX7 9i and see how it performs. Just a fun thing.
