Brass Door
I got mine! It's really nice (ordered tumbled without engraving). It weighs a full ounce more than my other door, so I am building muscles in my hand and arm. I think that means I can skip a gym membership and order more REO stuff. -
A Year and a Half in ... still smilin'!!
+1 on the RM2 from me. I am a 49 yr. old female klutz and I learned how to do coils. I use bamboo crochet thread for wicks. You picked a great time to get your second REO! -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
Absolutely, Rob's the greatest!! I've decided that I really needed a new 510 insulator, it was completely worn out :tongue: -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
I'm already obsessing that I didn't get my pin tight enough. I think you might have to start a trade-in program like they do for cars. It would be hard for me to give up my anodized though, so scratch that. Thanks again, I hope my red beauty gets to you safe and sound :) -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
I am so grateful that you are always around and know what kind of blunders we are capable of! I did good on my second try LOL -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
If that's all that came out, then it has to still be in there. You can only see it with the firing pin out and looking from inside. The REO I screwed up today was old and I'm sure juice had degraded both the bottom part of the gasket and the opening of the insulator. The other one I did today... -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
I knew something wasn't right and I just kept going because I knew that I should be able to see through the 510. Glad you stopped! Knowing that Rob will fix it is the only thing that kept me from crying. My family told me to stop talking about it. -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
Could it be that the center pin isn't tight enough? That is my only guess (and coming from someone who ruined a perfectly good REO earlier today!) -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
TG! :) I shouldn't have tried the rebuild on my other one, but it would have bothered me non-stop until I found out what happened. -

HELP! Did I break my REO?
Yes, it's much larger and very difficult to remove LOL - you can see the bottom of it looking up from inside - its like a donut compared to the gasket. -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
Because I can't leave anything alone, I took my other Grand apart and the problem was that the bottom of the gasket separated from the top when I pushed the firing pin out. When I looked inside, it must have been mashed inside the center of the 510 insulator completely plugging it - it had no... -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
Thanks Rob, I am packing it up now with the rebuild kit. I can't believe how stupid I am - after the center pin came out, it looked like a mess inside, so I thought the other part of the gasket was stuck in there. -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
Thank you Cliven, I'm so glad I asked first. I suppose I better not attempt this on my other REO or I'll be in a worse mess. -
HELP! Did I break my REO?
My rebuild kits came today. I watched all the videos first. When I was trying to get the gasket out, only the little round piece came out, the rest was a mushy mess that appeared to be glued-in, which after much work, turned into the blob in the picture. This thing looks nothing like the new... -
People with tiny hands - are you able to use the Grand comfortably?
I have small hands and I hold mine like AmandaD, and almost alway in my left hand. My fingers only go to the edge. I had a mini for about a year after I got my first Grand, but I kept going back to the Grand. -

Brass doors
Is Rob taking orders for the tumbled? I was hoping some would be on the site. -
Help, want to go back to analogs
Just wanted to send hugs from Minnesota. You are not alone, this is a real family {{hugs}} -
Hey reo family - what are some good cartos nowadays to try - boge seem horrible lately
I mostly used Boge 2.0 for nearly 3 years and switched to an RM2. Sorry to bring bad news, but even the Shortys were getting bad. I don't know what they've done to cartos recently, but they are all but worthless now. Does she have a reason for not wanting to go to an RM2? If I could switch...
