Help with carve shaft

[jmoriearty]

I had a shaft melt down a while back and finally got around to getting the new shaft installed. The problem is that the sheath of the new shaft is loose from the motor connection. I tried to install it anyway, but when the cut head moves from left to right, it pulls the sheath out. Sooooo.....should I contact CW and have them send me a new sheath or can I fix it with something like an epoxy? I'm not sure what they use to glue the components together.

I have used epoxy to glue the top section at the cutting head back together.

+1 - I use a 2 part epoxy to glue the top and bottom section on 2 different sheaths. On the machines now and carving away no problems.

Thanks guys. I have it glued up and curing now. Should be carving away tomorrow.
