So mathematically, it looks like a 2413 or 2415 would work.

Yep. 2413 is what I think I used, but it's been awhile.

Great, I can't remember where I found it, but I'm glad it will be used.

Susan,
The 2413 would provide a slightly looser fit. Conversely, the 2415s would be a lillte more snug. Maybe too snug. You could always sand them down a little.

I'm going to have to experiment-- a couple of coats of poly might make one fit better than the other-- according to my calculations, 11/32"= .34375, 2415+.3450 might be just right....

Your calculations look perfect. I have been footing carbon shafts and the outside diameters of similar shafts vary depending on the finish (3555 GTs - camo vs wood grain, for example).
