If you have, could you please tell me how? Thanks.

Really? Nobody? So what you guys are saying is that I should go, hat in hand, groveling over at CPF for the answer?

NEVER!

Perhaps I should have been more clear with the question. Obviously, it unscrews. Even I can see the threads and make a deduction.

What I want to know is, what do you use for leverage on the pill to get it to spin?

I’ve used a pair of tiny pointed scissors to remove the pill from my Maratac AAA. I think 47s glues pills. If it doesn’t want to budge don’t use force that may cause the unscrewing tool (scissors in my case) to slip and mar anything :Sp

Thanks, Slim. For sure, it doesn’t want to budge. Guess it is on to another project.

I use circlip pliers. Although large pointed tweezers would probably work too.

Chicken, mine doesn’t have the typical two holes/slots. Maybe it is newer/older than yours.
