When they were rotating the shaft against the plunger (to check straightness I'm assuming), is that done without the standard weight attached?
You do it without the weight to check straightness. Spin the shaft with the weight on to check variations in stiffness at different spots on the shaft. Carbons almost always have variations around the shaft. When I refletch carbons, I check to find the stiffest part of each shaft and that's the side where the index fletch goes.

Hi, Jeff.
Since I got my spine checker that is what I have been doing.

Nice to see you, and your knowledge,in these threads again.
