Last month or so there was a thread, where Marcus told about his problems with the small hose coming constantly off the handpiece, I had the same problem, and probably there s more of us out there..
Tried a lot of things but nothing really helped.. My collegue the mad professor pointed me that rubber hose can become hard (and lose flexibility althus grip) in contact with all kind of grease, even natural handgrease ..
so i protected and fixed the problem area with some simple heat shrinking tube, experimented now for some 2 weeks and... everything still in place and working just fine, no more stress ....and more time to engrave than to fix
i made a quick drawing, hopefully this system is helpful for some of you too
have a nice weekend
