Your thoughts on upgrading Feickert protractor

There's too much slack in the Pin hole that hovers over the center arm pivot. There should be a longer sleeve there of tighter tolerances to allow for a more accurate measure of S2P.

Your thoughts.

What version are you talking about? The latest version or first version ?

If your turntable spindle is too thin simply wrap it with a piece of tape (around it).

The Universal.

Based upon your post, you're not understanding my post.

@chakster, if I'm reading both your and slaw's posts correctly, Steve is speaking of the other end of the protractor: the hole for locating the center of the arm's pivot point/bearing(s).

Ok, i just checked mine and there is absolutely no movement between the parts, metal shaft sits firmly. The latest version of the Feickert called GN (Next Generation). The Universal is an old version and it’s different from the latest NG.

If you’re using an old version i must say it has been upgraded with the NG version.

If you having some problem with NG version i have to say i don’t have such problem with my NG
