How about mounting the sword to the MHL Lift? Would you have to put new holes in the Sword base?
I heard of someone who did it, but I haven't seen it.

MHL spacings are smaller than the Carafino/Taaroa

Maybe MHL = Zeeko footprint ?
Hawaiis, would you have one MHL within hand reach so that we can put all the dimensions of the different brands in a recap post ?

Taaroa, can you please specify how you place and bind the 2 wing nuts for each insert?
BTW, what will be the new fixing for the sword2?
Mercì,
Antonello

The inserts you were talking about are something like solution A(Left) or B (Right)?
I plan to use one of the two solution sinked with some fiberglass on a wooden stringer (two inserts). Then install two stringers in the board.
Any advice is welcome.

Zeeko has 85 x 160mm spacing
But is there a newer one with 85 x 165mm, can anyone confirm ?
