an old post, a timeless problem.
after uncharacteristically putting my tools down last night as the red mist started to roll in, I slept on the problem. this morning, Tea. And Forums. now i have clawed back a glimmer of hope - thankyou, shows how much of this mechanic business is psycological. I am now equipped with visualisations of hammering the cup into polite submission, or hacking through it like a knife through butter! ;)
Still, iv only just finished my cuppa, and have yet to lay eyes on the offending beast. diazapan should be a staple stock item in my workshop i think.
