yeah but being able to bitch about something you don't really care that much about is priceless.Hit it with hammer, or buy a new one... they’re $2

Squeeze the brass rivet between 2 planks.I'd prefer figuring out how to get it to tighten up again.
I keep it around for fire arms and hair trimmers.?+1 for 3 in 1 oil. Good for folding knives too. If you know anyone with a sewing machine, they should have some. If you're worried about using oil try graphite.
hoosierpipeguy--I like your posts! Really!! Example--I read about your use of mylar bags and ordered a bunch from Amazon--big & little (I should ask if you separate your tobacco tins, cans and bags into aros and non-aros before bagging them in the mylar? I did not and now wonder if should have??) & I love 'em. Back to your post--I agree! I had two tight ones, ordered 8 more and now I've got 8 more tight ones--I kid you not . Really. They're all tight, almost too tight to open. Course, maybe I just got weak hands/wrists
Thanks

I like the round pipe nails better but I miss the poky thing sometimes--to help I keep a few sm and lg mostly straightened paper clips. I need to get some air into the bowl when I pack it too tight .I hate the Czech tool. If the tamper was centered mayb.
It stands for water displacement 40th try. Developed for spinning the nosecones for rockets. They are spun by using a forming tool on a high speed lathe. Any moisture present resulted in an explosion, therefor something was needed to displace any moisture on the aluminum blanks prior to forming - hence WD40 (tm) The secret "base" is fish oil. It has minimal lubricating properties but does make a great penetrating oil as well...that's why it's called water Defense oh that makes sense.
So you're saying the first 39 tries resulted in explosions?It stands for water displacement 40th try. Developed for spinning the nosecones for rockets.

It's true most people don't know the sorta bad ass origin story of WD40.It stands for water displacement 40th try. Developed for spinning the nosecones for rockets. They are spun by using a forming tool on a high speed lathe. Any moisture present resulted in an explosion, therefor something was needed to displace any moisture on the aluminum blanks prior to forming - hence WD40 (tm) The secret "base" is fish oil.

yeah but only for fun.So you're saying the first 39 tries resulted in explosions?
All I can say for sure is that before the 40 tries there were explosions...So you're saying the first 39 tries resulted in explosions?
Is that for the 'pipe tool' or something else you are offering advice on?Put it in the freezer for 10 minutes and then work it back and forth furiously for a few minutes until the friction warms it up. Repeat.
It’s a VERY versatile technique.... ?Is that for the 'pipe tool' or something else you are offering advice on?
