|  Shrink Wrap on CVD Pins?
I kept searching but can't find anything on using shrink wrap to keep the front CVD pins in place on the MRC Pro. I remember reading about it on a thread somewhere here. Can someone help me out? Thanks! |

I'd imagine you would just use the shrink wrap all around the CVD area where the pin may fall out. Yes a size would be nice, but I think I'll just go to Harbor Freight and pick up a variety pack. |

I used some about 15mm diameter (i guess), that shrank down nicely. Cut about 7mm length off, slip over and a heat (i used a lighter) and job done. Stops pin falling out (if it were to come loose), and saves you looking for a spare pin and grub. I have been running Losi CVDs for about 18months, not had a pin come loose yet. but better safe than sorry! (for the sake of a few pence of heat shrink!) |
