metal coil sleeves are stupid
« on: November 20, 2012, 08:53:54 AM »
 who was the asshole who even thought up the idea of using metal flipper coil sleeves!
These things are almost impossible to get out unharmed as you can see by my trashing of it
just to remove the confounded thing!
Luckily SlyDog43 gave me the newer nylon ones for replacements as these are definitely shot now!
each one took about half an hour to get out too even with all that denting and bending of it!
Whew! well that's one project done..now on to the others
I can't post a pic here it says the file size is too large (standard pic)

Always hated metal coil sleeves myself, the plastic ones melted and burned, but they were cheap to replace.
