Default CX2, CX3 Titanium inner shafts available.

These titanium shafts are tough to bend when compared to the stock shafts, almost half the weight of the stock shaft. Mines on its way to me now, probably tomorrow.

At first I was going to make them but I don't have the tools necessary to make them, so I gave a friend my idea. My friend has access to just about any machine you could think of, he has made some of his own machining tools. My friend has built some amazing things like a lathes, mills and made machining tools specifically designed for one purpose.

I wish I had half his tallent! When making these impressive tools he does it all in his head without any sketching, he just see's it in his head and makes them! He also can and has made things out of carbon fiber in the past, its making the molds that are tough. I am amazed everytime I see his works of arts!!

Well I received my titanium inner shaft today, boy is it stiff! The quality is excellent and everything lined up perfectly, where can you find a "titanium inner shaft" for CX2 under $10.00 dollars? [X(]

I'm told that this guy on e-Bay with make different lengths shafts on request, one for the stock upper head and another for those that have the Xtreme upper head which is a little shorter than the stock length. I'm blown away, I should have got two of these titanium shafts!
