So, I'm playing around with Veco / K&B NVAs, like some of the ones offered on the Veco .19. Kind of similar to certain O.S. and Fox NVAs, in that there is a folded piece of metal that serves as a detent, held by a nut.
What is the best way to turn and/or hold the nut?
I've used needle nose pliers held outside, along the length of the NVA. This process seems less than ideal. Another idea is to fold the detent back, use a deep well socket, then re-tension the detent. This is a bad idea, especially on O.S., as the detent is brittle.
Thoughts?
thanks,
Peter
