PAF Pro and Fillister Screws?

[shred4Him]

Has anyone ever replaced a row of the hex poles and replaced them with fillisters? In theory, this should fatten it up a bit and round the highs a little. I may have to give this experiment a try, but was curious if anyone has been there and done that and what they thought.

I've used 12 fillisters on a Demon and it did fatten it up and round it out. It's a subtle change, bit it's there.

The PAF Pro's hex screws are longer than what Duncan use on the Full Shred or Demon, though. Shorter than the standard Duncan filisters, but not by much. If there is a change, it won't be as big.

Thanks for the wisdom guys. There might be a place that has longer filisters that I can cut down and/or experiment with. Thankfully it is a cheap and easy experiment to perform.

A lot depends on how hard the steel is. Hex screws are generally higher in carbon content. That tends to make things brighter.

PAFs used common leaded steel screws. Lower carbon content gives a somewhat warmer tone.
