I have two of these. Shortly after getting the second one, I noted it
allowed a T-32 to wobble a little more than the first, although there was
no rattle. Still, I didn't care for the slight wobbling. I'm guessing the
T20 connectors were designed for the mass and stresses from a T-20 being
mounted in them, and not a T-32. Using some epoxy and a toothpick I ran a
bead of epoxy down each side of the shoe rail between it and the plastic
body of the connector. Care was taken to keep the epoxy only along the
side of the rail and the height of the bead below the top of the
shoe. Mounting the shoe on a little table-tripod and using a small
magnifier helped. Some of the first bead was pulled down into the thin gap
between body and shoe (capillary action ??), so a little more epoxy was
added to the bead before it set. Let them set for 24 hours so the epoxy
would fully harden. Both now hold T-32's solid as a rock; no more slight
flash head wobbling. They're mounted on a Newton flash bracket for using
two T-32's side-by-side.
