I am working on my first Perfect Fit. It uses the slightly larger B mandrel and the bushings therefore have the larger I.D.
I have glued the upper tube in flush with the cap end creating the space for the centerband and avoiding having to part it off.
My problem is the blanks do not both fit on the mandrel with the bushings ... the last bushing would be over the threads which are the standard mandrel size...
I have resisted turning them between centers for fear of flaring the unsupported tube at the CB. I probably will just turn the cap blank using the mandrel and the lower between centers but I would like to hear what others do.
Thanks!
