Like his fellow confessed hack, Maxprop, Nellen doesn't know what tools are needed to do jobs properly. Like Max, Nellen has damaged hardware by using vice-grips, rather than a properly sized wrench. Look at that gouge! Bristol? Ouch! http://captneal.homestead.com/files/staloktoggel.jpg CWM Does not appear to be vice grip damage. No teeth marks and the edge of the face is not rounded. It more resembles the work of a pipe wrench if anything. Hack work with the wrong tools, regardless. That nasty scar could easily be from vicegrips or channel-loks. Highly doubtful that it was a pipe wrench. CWM Looks like he used a flat head screwdriver and a hammer to break it loose. That would be a pretty bizarre and ineffective thing to do. Put proper sized wrenchs on the flats of the two parts and they always come apart without much fuss if they were properly assembled to begin with. Then again, Nellen specializes in being bizarre and ineffective... CWM All you Bozos prove by your ignorant statements that you have NEVER reused a Sta-Lok fitting. Had any of you lamers ever reused a Sta-Lok fitting you would know that to disassemble them one must first clamp the terminal body upside down in the jaws of a vice at the eye/pin area. Then a wrench is used to spin the compression nut out of the body. Then one must clamp the compression nut in the jaws of a vice. Then one must use a hacksaw to cut the wire flush with the compression nut. With the compression nut still firmly clamped in the jaws of the vice one uses a punch to knock out the crimped wire/cone remains from the compression nut. Those marks on the side you see were most like the result of the vice jaws and if any marks are noted on the top of the compression nut it was probably the result of it being "kissed" by the hacksaw blade. What a bunch of ruckin' fetards! But, keep trying. One of these days you might convince yourselves that you know even a tiny bit about Bristol standing rigging. Wilbur Hubbard |
