    Broken PB1 screws

    well i had asked once already, no worries though. as for the stuck bits, it will take someone with a jewelers bit to cut a slot or notch in the screw to attempt extraction. you can get the bits for a standard dremel, but if you do not have steady hands i would drop them at a local jeweler...

    Can you wear one pair for a Week?

    this 1 pair of rough lookin penny with beater lenses got me 99.9% of the year. (for literally 20 years now) i do put new lenses in them when i can't see through them anymore, usually after my angle grinder spits a chunk of something at my face. i do occasionally don some Romeo 2s. pretty rare...

    Broken PB1 screws

    carefully open the orbital and grab the end of the screw with needle nose pliers. i actually have a small pair of needle nose pliers i ground down to a thinner profile just for doing this.

    Broken PB1 screws

    pic of the screw? if the head is still there but just totally stripped then: grind a flat head screwdriver till it fits tightly in some portion of the stripped head, and warm the frame up with a hair dryer. if the flat blade screwdriver wont work, you can try a screw extractor bit also...

    Penny rant

    No matter how many times i put nose bushings in pennies, i will always ruin at least 2 pins. No pair of x-metal is as awkward to hold, tight to fit the pins, or as much of a pain to work on as pennies. Also, nothing fits like a fresh pair of pennies. #worthit

    2021-? The Joe B presidential accomplishments thread

    just realized this was a [SARCASM] thread. my bad bro. how about this one. Joe 'fixed' the EPA allowing them to target ANY aftermarket parts manufacturer and nearly destroying the car scene. If you have not signed the RPM act you should. This was an attempt at creating local jobs and...

    ebay prices - crazy?

    im going to mention that if you are selling something on this forum, be prepared to receive a fair amount of comments from people explaining how far off your price is, how smart your wife is, how hot your cat is, etc. seriously, this place ranks right up there with Craigslist for the utter...

    2021-? The Joe B presidential accomplishments thread

    Biden is fixing the FCC, after Trump caused the average prices ISPs charge to go up more than 19% in just his 1 term. https://arstechnica.com/information-technology/2021/05/ajit-pai-promised-cheaper-internet-real-prices-rose-19-percent-instead/ ISPs tacked on more fees and data limits after...

    Just saw these and threw out an offer which won

    you can cover the cracked side of the box with a piece of clear packing tape. leave extra over the sides, carefully flatten it with a credit card, then trim the edges with a razer. kind of like tinting a window. this will keep the crack from getting worse, and the tape is not visible if...

    Hammer stems

    not if you are wearing a helmet. Hammer stem juliets are a little more rare, if you are into that.

    Am I Nuts?

    I always said 9, as i assumed the hammer stem Juliet's were unique enough to be considered a seperate frame.
