How get Tip Off...... Halp !!
« on: Fri, 16 March 2018, 16:46:36 »
1st thought is,  Soak the tip in hot water ?

2nd thought.. BURN IT w/ Fire!!

3rd thought...  Gekhak Xperts.. !!


I know with bigger Gears I'd typically go with fire,  but i don't know if this type of attachment has some sort of issues with heat.

But in this case, there's not alot of clearance , and i definitely don't have a puller that small.

Just the tip?

I cut the base off and managed to fix the motor by cleaning leaked electrolytics which covered the brushes...

But now I can't get the Tip all the way down the shaft..

Until I saw the picture, I wondered what he was trying to get the tip off :))
"Because keyboards are accessories to PC makers, they focus on minimizing the manufacturing costs. But that’s incorrect. It’s in HHKB’s slogan, but when America’s cowboys were in the middle of a trip and their horse died, they would leave the horse there. But even if they were in the middle of a desert, they would take their saddle with them. The horse was a consumable good, but the saddle was an interface that their bodies had gotten used to. In the same vein, PCs are consumable goods, while keyboards are important interfaces." - Eiiti Wada
