And since the socket is asymmetrical, it would be tricky (not impossible) to have the force of the shaft travel through the lip of the socket, rather than the inside.

Fun to discuss though. I'd love to get a better inside diameter on that socket.

Ok

I plan on mounting the head on a thin shaft in the near future and will get some cardboard targets to test it on. Will let you know whats the results are.
