Any Trick To Replacing The Washers On The Stems Of Juliets?

[rmontez]

For the life of me I can't get these two washers in place on the stem of my Juliets. It seems like they will fit if I can just get them in place at the same time. Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks
Rene

Ok I guess the only trick is to use the screw as a holder while moving the glasses into different positions.

Use a toothpick and a flathead screwdriver. Use the screwdriver to pry open the orbital part to slide the arm and washers in. Then use a toothpick in the bottom to guide the screw in through the top. X Man told me to do this, and it always works.

use craft glue to hold it. i wrote a tutorial in the customs section i think? how to perform arm swaps on xmetals. it might be a sticky

pretty good tips guys I'll have to remember them if I have to do it again.

No no no.... Easiest way... Right here. Put in your bottom washers and slide in the stem. Then use a toothpick to "align" the washers a bit. Twist the stem downward and slide in the top washers... Use the toothpick again to align them all. Viola. No prying necessary

If you must use anything to hold them, use a drop of light oil, but spit generally works better and wont degrade any washers...

I use a thread to keep the washers and stem together. Then a tooth pick to adjust the washers.

spit generally works better

I'm so glad that I'm not the only one that does that!
