I thought there might be a another way around it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you had say 1 metre of shaft sticking out and just hanging there, it would be way out of balance as soon as it started to spin, whereas if you cut the one metre down to 5cm, it would be far more in balance.

A slight rolling of the guards and no rubbing anywhere. What offset do you have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
