    Default A dent on the MHS body

    Well, I got my saber back from powder coating today, but when I tried to screw in the emitter, it wouldn't go. Upon closer examination, I saw that there is a bloody DENT outside of the saber, but it is where the threads are, so it pushed them in.

    I'll get a pic up soon, my camera battery just died on me.

    Does ANYBODY know how to fix this? On Monday I'll call the shop that did the painting if i can't fix it myself.

    Maybe take a monkey pliers on the inside and expand it so it bends it back?

    and destroy the threads while i'm at it?

    That's the tricky part. The dent is right where the threads are. If it wasn't, I wouldn't care, but now I can't screw the emitter into it.

    FIXED IT!!!!!!!
    all it took was 1/2 an hour, WD 40, and a lot of elbow grease
