Even if I am wrong by 50% and it is 15 pounds. Obviously it is impossible
to reduce the weight by 15 pounds. Don't go messing around with the
e-shaft. You could introduce stress concentration
points that could lead
to failure.

I'm not advocating lightening the e-shaft, I just thought it was heavier than that.
