I don't have any photos, the trick is to find a lock washer with a hole wide enough to fit around the two bolts between the mounting plates. You only need two lock washers on one end of the two bolts.
@LPowell: Could you please post pictures of what you did with the lock-washers on yours? I'm doing something similar but would love to see some for reference!
From the looks of it, switching a JAG35 D|Gear between lenses would no doubt be tedious. I assumed they were intended to be permanently installed on each lens?
>They are overpriced and very unhandy (you lens definitely won't like this bolts).
True story. I've only got three lenses, but switching between them is a hassle when using my Jag35 D|Focus and gear. The bolts become a nuisance, having to constantly switch them. I'm a bit nervous they'll wear out!
The zip-tie universal gears I've seen fit snug against the lens focus ring. The problem with that is the gear ratio that determines the rotation range of the FF wheel will then vary with the diameter of each lens. The TrusMT and JAG35 lens gears are designed to produce a consistent gear ratio regardless of the lens size. Anyone know if there are any better solutions available?
>I got the set of four lens rings that TrusMT sells, but they each adjust to only a limited range of lens diameters, The two largest sizes are far bigger than any of my lenses and I'll probably not find a use for them.
In this case I do not understand previous question.

They are overpriced and very unhandy (you lens definitely won't like this bolts). You can always buy set of select necessary gears from ebay for much cheaper. Or buy adjustable universal gears.

Chinese companies seems to be keen on larger numbers, but I don't know for sure. Vitaliy seems to already be in contact with them for the matte box, will have to see how it goes. I think the new model is in response to the onslaught of $ 160 follow focus. Just before that they were the best price performance ratio. Now they have to differentiate them-self a bit more to expected price arround twice that of the lower end models.
