Ok so Im trading a guy my red parts from my Ego8 for bronze parts..but I cant get the macro fitting off of the reg swivel to take off the swivel. Think you can get it off? I dont want to scratch my stuff..so Im giving up on it. It wont budge for me..even after heating it with an hair dryer.

ok well here is my normal way of dealing with problem fittings like yours. I stick the regulator on something I really don't care about. I have a old black dragon body for this. I usally use a fitted wrench but put a 1/8 inch rubber buffer between the reg and your wrench. put some power behind it if that doesn't work bring it up to me I will see what I can do

Yea Id like to keep that away from the orings in the bottom of the reg. Ill give it another go tonight.. I tried just about everything yesterday. Strap wrench with a 8 mm wrench, then tried a hand vice grip on the fitting..still no budge. Eclipse must use some powerful loktite.

When I have problems like that, i normally take this grip crap my mom as and surround the piece im trying to turn w/ it and i take a vice grip and clamp it on there and hand it to my strong friend lol...so the moral of the story is to FIND A STRONG FRIEND!  |
