      With that stuffing tube like that and a teflon liner you are certainly asking for trouble. 1/4 cable is very rough....Im surprised you are not melting it all and locking your cable up until the shafts snaps. I never really seen anyone run teflon with that big of cable.

        An old rule of thumb, the tube must straight for at least 2" before the strut or collet.

          You're not invisable, Howard. But, you should add a pic of yourself so we all can SEE you. JIM
