I do the same as RK but for 20-30 seconds or so. Remember to dry
the tip of the shaft and take a Q-Tip to the inside of the hosel to
removing any moisture.

Ralph, I use boiling water to enlarge, hey Al T you like that word, the ferrule. I put a cup of water in the microwave, heat it until it comes to a boil then place the shaft tip with the ferrule in place as far as I can get it, for about 1 minute, then ram it home.

Subject: ShopTalk: question about installing ferrules
I am getting ready to do my first "shim" and I want to perform a dry-run
before using epoxy. A ferrule will need to be used. Currently it is very
tight when I try to put it on the shaft; only moving about 1/4 inch down
the shaft.
My question is what would be probably the best lubricant to use to put
on the ferrule for the test? I suppose anything could be used but I
wanted some more professional opinions before I tried something.
Thanks!
Ralph
