No matter what you use to check the temp of the outside of the hosel, you won't know the inside temp, or in fact, the temp at the bottom inside of the head.
Very true, that's why after you hit 250* outside
Arnie are there any gadgets, gizmos, or tricks of the trade you
haven't thought of? Another great idea! Thanks

Is 250 deg. F the point that the epoxy breaks down, the head
won't burn and the shaft won't melt? The meltdown point
seems to be pretty close as it seems all hell breaks loose (with the
head and shaft) very quickly.
Sounds like a great product, don't

Gee Arnie, I never thought about a
Tempilstik. We use them in the auto body repair industry to monitor the
temperature of high strength steel while it's being heated and
straightened. Tempilstiks come in many temperatures, the one we use the
most is around 1000ºF, but as you said

If a person has a good head pusher, and has applied
serious force to the head while heating, the head will pop off as soon as the
epoxy bond breaks. What else could you need? Hell, if you want know the temp of

Chris,
That heat monitoring strip might be good undertheheat lights
you use for quick-drying and strengthening24-hour epoxy. Max strength of
GS stuff is at 150°F, so when the edge of the strip turns color, you're
about there. (Of course, a thermometer would work just as well, but you can

Big Guy,
Yup, or very close for shafting epoxy. For some reason 248 rings a
bell but I am sure it varies with different epoxies. But agree with
TFlan. Who really cares what the outside temp is? You are
pulling/pushing the head. Whenever the epoxy breaks down, the head
comes off.
Bernie,
Great
