If you used that same nut and just pushed the sheath through it, it almost certainly would not grip onto the sheath correctly. ??
That's what I'm sayin'. Thus the "Well DUH" comment I made. You've just said the same thing but used a whole bunch of words to do
it. You practicing for running for office soon?
It did hold it somehow for 13 months, but since I was hoping for somewhat longer (that's what
she said), I would have to agree that pushing it in doesn't hold it correctly.
Unless I am missing something which is entirely possible. ??
Yeah sorta, in my attempt to save others from the same dumb mistake, I tried to call myself a dumb ass so no one else would
( I think the term is preemptive strike?) . You haven't, but you are building a fancy frame around it and putting it up in lights!
It's OK, I can handle it
, I just hope the whole post doesn't have a negative affect on the Rostra selection
for others, because it really is a fine unit. It has added considerable benefit for my enjoyment of the touring side of the C14, as much
or more than I think the near term install of a set of PR3s will add to the Sport side of my C14.
I think it's pretty clear by now (Thanks Brian!
) that this was MY screw up
and in no way should it have a negative or chilling effect on others considering the Rostra install.
I just hope I don't have to take off that bottom cover to fix this, as I have a Top Block slider there now
that wasn't there when I did the Rostra install.
Pre- alien? Doesn't seem possible. That movie was made back in the early days of the LED.
Yeah, in addition to being a Rostra install screw up, I'm old too.
OK, maybe I didn't see the Wizard of Oz when it
was first released, but I did see "The Thing
(from another world)" [1951]with James Arness
on a
round CRT black and white Philco TV as a kid.
We kept the TV next to the rotary dial telephone that had the
old dial tone.
...but we digress.
So just to stay on topic,
don't do what I did. Screw the sheath into the snap-in adapter!
