I wonder if anyone else has had this issue. I had a whole Schoolcraft set expanded Kennedy set and a matching CSB, and a C/B and a Gravity Flipper. one of my best savings. Anyway through thievery and Military Movement's. I now have a Lassen [ and a Schoolcraft Gravity Flipper. It sticks pretty hard and cant do Eric's 3 coin routine, has anyone have a similar issue to try to fix this or should I just not bother and wait and get a new matching everything?

Have you tried to insert the flipper into the shell with a handkerchief? This can help expand the shell a little for a looser fit.

You might try to reduce the radius of the flipper shell using fine wet dry sanding paper. Do this slowly and evenly check the fit constently. Assuming that this is a kennedy the milling should be deep enough that it will not damage the flipper or be noticeable. Good luck and Happy New Year

Since you have a Schoolcraft Gravity Flipper, I would contact him to see if he would reduce the size of the flipper. You would most likely have to send him both the flipper and the shell.
Before you do anything contact Schoolcraft to see what he can do. Good Luck! |

John, yeah I have thought about that and from time to time I do reach out to him. He is just a very busy guy and I was mainly wondering for a simple, old silk stretch fix. Plus I wouldn't want to tamper wit it too much in case I ever sell mine to get a OXF or something like that. Plus I am deployed and the turn around would be maybe over a month if it could be done that way.

Sell the flipper and ask Todd to match one for you for the shell.
