| Same here, I just got a Extreme kit last week and it has the metal fan. No holes predrilled. The fan was way, way out of ballance. More than I would expect. It took eight 3/16" dimples drilled into one side to get it to ballance. I hope I got a bad one and they do not all come this way. It seemed like alot of material to remove. I used the high point balancer. I mounted just one magnet. The GV1 directions step you through finding the correct side of the magnet to use. Basically you just pass it by the sensor and see which side gives you a reading.
I used 30min epoxy to glue, and I am trying a technique used in dental fillings to hold it in. (I hear the magnets like to come loose). I drilled the hole to accomodate the magnet, then made a pocket larger in diameter under the magnet that forms a shape of a flask, (larger at the bottom, and skinnier at the top) if you know what I mean. Dentists use this to keep fillings from falling out. We will see how it works. |
