Spinning post RM6?

[lKeithStone]

I'm not sure if there is a fix, but every time I screw down one of the outside posts on the RM6 it spins. It causes my coil to expand and sometimes it messes with the connection on that coil. I have to wiggle it around to get it to make a full connection. If it spins to far, I have to unscrew it, stick a paperclip in it, and spin the post back in place.

Any advice? It's starting to get really annoying when building coils.

Thanks!

There is a fix you can try that I was successful with fixing the spinning neg post on a clone Magma...you need a drill, a small file and a piece of tinfoil, a vice (or a small hammer, needle nose pliers and a block of wood with a hole in it big enough for the 510 connector)

Pull the post out (it's obviously already loose) and chuck it in the drill so that the part that goes in the deck hole is sticking out...while running the drill, put a slight taper on the tip, slight...the taper is so you can use the tinfoil as shim material, if you don't put a taper on it, it'll just punch a hole in the tinfoil when you press the pin back in (make sure the coil hole is oriented properly when you try to press it back in)...the vice is easier to press the pin back in but the hammer method works in a pinch.

you may need to repeat till you stop punching holes in the tinfoil...I got the Magma pin back to rock solid with no apparent drop in performance.

Thanks Robert! The problem is... I don't have a back up atty.

I will probably just order another RM6. Once I receive the new one, I will send in the old one.

A few questions:
1. Do I send it to the address below:
120 Ida Jim Rd
Alfred
Maine
04002
2. Should I send in everything, or just the bottom piece?
3. Will there be a cost to fix/replace it?
4. I will have to pay for Shipping, correct?

Thanks!
