Title: Model F feet - AT and XT are not interchangeable
Post by: geniekid on Wed, 22 October 2014, 20:22:59
With the help of fohat.digs, I have discovered that Model F AT feet are not interchangeable with XT feet.  Probably some people already know this, but I couldn't find any information on the subject when I was looking for it so if that information is already out there it's hard to find :)  Anyway, here are some pictures to illustrate the foot difference.  Not pictured are the spring mechanisms for each foot, which are also different between the AT and the XT.

AT
[attach=1]

XT
[attach=2]

Potato pics yes but you get the idea.  Hopefully this helps someone else!  And also, someone sell/trade me a Model F AT foot :)

That's good to know. If you like I can check intercompatability of 3178 feet (Doubt it but I'll check anyway).

Sure.  Worst case scenario we have more info for future reference.  Either way, I appreciate the offer.
