[QUOTE="Badge, post: 633103, member: 21082"] Thanks for the photography tips Wally69. I'm getting there steadily. 3 springs you say? :awful: No, there are just 2 (soon to be 3) ball bearings inside the 3 grub screws. The Gemmasta came off Noah's Ark so maybe no springs in these ones, I hope so anyway. [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/21082/1643444842_thumbnail_img_3698x.jpg[/img] This is one of the grub screws I'm referring to. [img]https://www.prospectingaustralia.com/forum/img/member-images/21082/1643444910_thumbnail_img_3700.jpg[/img] I'd really like to get a different type of handpiece but I'm not sure if the other model handpieces will fit a GFE3. I saw one that was like a chuck so it automatically centred the dop. That would be ideal. I'll have to call GemCuts etc and ask for some info. Cheers. Badge. [/QUOTE]
