Wanted to bounce an idea off the collective list brainpower: I read about exotic and complicated ways to hoist the mast up to work on rotators. It would be extremely nice to be able to remove my rota

I suspect that eventually the bolt holes holding the sleeve and the mast will "worry", and you'll get more and more "slop" in the joints. You could delay the process by using hardened mast material a
