A long time ago I bought two TailTwisters and the bell housings were
obviously for something greater than 2" diameter masts (just slightly). I
complained to Hygain and they sent two new bell housings that were perfect
for 2" diameter masts. I don't know which one you have, but they may well
be for 2-1/16" as you indicate.
