Threaded Inserts
« on: September 07, 2024, 03:31:13 PM »
This FAQ link describes how to install threaded inserts:

The one thing I didn’t see is how do you remove the super glued hex screw once the threaded insert is installed?


Thanks!

I see now, you screw on a second insert that will be the one installed. Once the second one is installed you back out the one that is glued to the hex screw. 😊

Got to admit, I never noticed that detail before... and I couldn't remember how I did it on my Persuader 5. Been too long.  :)


FWIW, acetone will release CA glue. Just be careful what you get that stuff on... some finishes will crinkle before your sad eyes.

Yea, the one with the glued insert becomes the installation tool.
