DPT seized baffles
Despite joking to the wife that my recently purchased 3d printer would solve any problem in the house I'm still a bit slow at practicing that myself. Anyway I remembered a few posts on this forum suggesting strap wrenches would be a good solution for freeing stuck baffles. About $5 of filament later I had these. Which did the job perfectly.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/202...59907ef3b7.jpg

Had to disassemble many of these DPTs in a previous role and many were well seized, I soaked them in Nut Cracker and and used hose clamps over strips of leather to gain purchase for unthreading and it them worked well but those tools you made look nifty as well

Been using anti seize grease in small amounts on the threads of each baffle that is rated to handle heat. Seems to be working last few months - still taking apart to clean after each trip where I have fired a shot or two. But previously having some baffles stuck together after one shot fired on a trip became a right pain in the arse.

Are you using a heat safe one ?? Does it even matter ?
Just got a new dpt so I'll get some and look to avoid this

Can you print the battery box parts for a Starsled Go battery pack with your printer?

The easy route. Not everybody is a genius with technology. Cunning idea.
