Hey everyone.

I have a few questions for you all. I just got the H/T GSoW and the EMSH. I noticed on the GSoW that the handle won't come off when I try to disassemble it, and I need to get it off. Is it glued on? I noticed that the tang may be slightly leaning to one side, and I want to inspect it. If you want, I'll post pics.

Also, what display method do you all prefer? I use guitar hangers for the 2 SLO's I have and my Vaciacraft Lionheart.

As per Kult of Athena's description:
The hilt is retained by Tinker’s signature recessed sleeve mounting system, providing secure retention and easy hilt tightening, using the Allen wrench provided.

-did you get the allen key? Could be just a really tight fit for the hex screw...

I got the pommel off, but the handle didn't slide off as I expected it to. Which, now that I think about, was a silly assumption in the first place

Slap the guard from the top with your bare hand / or a pos paperback book to loosen it up. Once everything is off, you can easily tell if the tang is bent or not.

My single hander was a SOB to ge the grip off the first time, I've noticed the wood core is slightly off square and fits on better one way vs. flipping it around.

mrstabby: Been thinking the same - but the person that set up the page might not be there anymore and old code gets messy when not maintained. Might be a "repair subscriptions, destroy function X, repair X, destroy Y" situation by now - would mean a total overhaul. Nov 18, 2024 7:29:27 GMT

choseychas: Huh. Is there no fix on our side then? Or is it that you need to contact an admin since the auto system is down? Nov 18, 2024 3:58:50 GMT

eastman: problems with the forum software are the cause, not a goal to limit the club. There is an error with the software that messes up activities that require the sending of email. Nov 18, 2024 3:57:36 GMT

choseychas: That's what I figured, wasn't sure if it had become a limited club where you have to know someone to get in or what was going on. Nov 18, 2024 2:39:40 GMT

eastman: that situation has been constant at MyArmoury for the last 2-3 years Nov 18, 2024 0:32:06 GMT

choseychas: Anyone have any info on MyArmoury registration? Been wanting to make an account for a year or more (can't remember at this point) but every time I've checked they've halted registrations. Nov 17, 2024 21:55:36 GMT

alinkinthechain: I also do love Boston. I've traveled a bit and nothing feels as wonderful as that city to me. I'm lucky to live nearby Nov 12, 2024 15:28:16 GMT

txhighlander: Boston might be my fav. So much history, and clean! and great food. New York was cool for a day to see iconic landmarks Nov 7, 2024 17:00:22 GMT
