Another Sean build...

Yeah its driving me crazy there are so many myths about the Sean case it doesnt fit a genuine tube without modification. It needs to be tapped and countersunk. 

 

I did have the Sean tube at the start with a gen crown but the gen crown didnt fit for me :(

 

So now the question is either:

 

1. Start again - tap a new case and countersink a new genuine tube

 

2. Countersink this case and JB weld in a new genuine tube

 

I managed to get most of the remaining parts of the broken tube out but the threads are destroyed

 

Im leaning towards starting again and doing it properly so I dont run into problems in the future

 

Ideas?

It could be, I had a crown that was supposed to be gen that sat out like that.  Now I use a gen monoblock 704 that looks a lot wider then the gen vintage 703 I have on my lughole case but both sit in deep like they're suppose to.  The ironic part, I broke my Sean crown early on (broke a stem off inside it) and after ordering the 704 discovered that the two are nearly identical...
