30 years ago I built my first proper set (Driver, 3W 2i-SW) bought all the parts from a company called Golfsmith in Austin, TX. I couldn't afford the Ping Eye 2's so I bought the knock offs. I enjoyed it and seeing people's faces when I would tell them I built them.

Matching up the lengths using the butt end of the grips was a great move... ... I have a portable gripping station that mounts to a vice .. Bought from GolfWorks here in the US for about $30-$40. Definitely worth it... The grips slide right on with a push on the club head side

On another note, I completely regripped my clubs and the wife's clubs in February, decided to give'er a go, I watched your method, saw a video on using compressed air, which means you can use the clubs immediately after, however I like the idea of regrip in late winter and play in summer... this way you can get some practice in after the season closes with the grips you're used to... Get the wife some new grips for Christmas, buy a new set for yourself, then pop them on after the new year mess... Then get some practice in with the new grips before the season starts.. THAT was the plan.. We know what happened in the new year that put a real downer on that plan... but courses are now open! Great content James! Very nice How-To video you put together. Honestly, you did a great job!

I naturally expected you to use that shaft flex test info in building this set when i seen the title of this vid

The swing weight is normally done prior to gluing heads on. SW slugs often have a lip and you glue them into shaft, the lip stops them falling into shaft while head glue wet. They maybe D1 or similar as you built them. I played a new set of 33s on rifle shafts and were poetry. I should never have sold them. Back then they were only about 450quid. 3i-SW

Top tip on the grip tape side of things. Always leave some excess at the top of the shaft to plug the opening. Otherwise dirt can get into the shaft through the pinhole in the top of the grip. Long term your else up with that horrible gritty rattling sound when you move the club.

I've built my own clubs for years and I really really enjoy it! Without sounding like a nob the only thing I'd suggest is using proper shafting expoxy and not araldite... Shafting expoxy is designed not to sheer so you won't have any issues with heads flying off... I have seen araldite'd heads flying off in the past...

For tight ferrules, I used steam to get a perfect fit without any fancy equipment or hammering. Just slip them on the end of the shaft, steaming the shaft/ferrule over a tea pot for a few minutes to expand/soften the ferrule plastic, the use the head to push the ferrule up to the perfect spot for each club. You just have to be careful not to steam too long or it’ll make the plastic ferrule uneven thickness at the head. You can fix this with an Emory board and some acetone but better to just be cautious.

Tip...buy extra ferrules and stash them away. If you misinstall a ferrule...say it slides too far onto the club or you accidently put it on upside down (yes it happens) its easy to heat them up with a torch or heat gun and pull the old one off.
