I was wondering what is your point of view on drilling holes in blades to adjust them on shoes? Is it worth the trouble? I have seen some pretty dammaged blades from the drilling and screwing 
I now own Composite Fiber blades (had platic before)  - and effesub shoes, and i just glued them on with loctite. And now i wonder should i or should i not make a hole in them' If so, how? With what tools? Just punch through with a drill? Melt the holes through with heated object or something? 
Some expertise oppinion on this would pe really apprettiated  |
If you have properly glued the blades into the pockets with loctite/cyanoacrylate, there no point in drilling holes and using the screw assembly kit. It's like wearing suspenders AND a belt
As a matter of fact, drilling holes into the blades is making them more fragile and especially overtightened scews provide a delicate leverage point for the blades to snap/break.
