    Do you think a drill bit could be run through between the teeth that grip the spines so the top nut on the spindle could then be used again.

    Should this info be posted in the alternative build parts section

    Re the blade itself, I have fitted a 20” supplied by ‘Vipa’, very flexible, more supports along the blade itself which help with fitting the curve at the extremities, and no skidding.

    You could drill the cover to accomodate the bolt but I think you would have to fit some sort of IVA compliant nut. I will dig out the arm and post a pic.
