Quick question on the atty threads for sb/bb

[RedAlert]

I've had my BB for a week now, and loving it. when screwing the atty on though, it gets snug, but there is a gap between the bottom of the atty and the connector on the bb. I can screw it all the way down and it doesnt take any force to do it all the way. I just want to make sure I'm not hurting anything by screwing it down all the way. With it just snug, the atty wiggles around a little bit.

There is usually a small gap when the connector makes contact. Good rule of thumb is to turn it 1/2 turn when you get to that point.

Use a little WD-40 or some sort of machine oil (VERY LITTLE BIT) around the threads to coax it in that last little bit. Thats what I did when I first got it cause it wasn't threading more than half way.

I'd go with this advice, since cddz is Chad, the manufacturer of the BB.
