Removing a spiral lock

That would be why there's black marker on all my parts...lol. I hate taking them off too. I use a seal pick but anything small will do

I almost died when I realized I put the rod on backwards. Man!!! It was like 11:00 and I was exhausted from doing a million things all day. That pounded the last nail right in!

And I agree in hindsight that black marker is the only way to go!
I'll never do that again!:-D
