When mine got stuck I used the end of a small crowbar \ pry bar like a make shift screw driver, might work for yours as well.

The cooling / heating trick might be your best bet then. From what I remember FUG's are made from Delrin so you don't need to worry about it getting too brittle or anything, well short of freezing the damn thing in liquid nitrogen.

Put wax on the threads when you get it off, it will go on and off a lot easier.

I just tried mine, it was pretty tight but a quarter did the trick I just pushed down real hard. Otherwise you might try a big screwdriver. |

The only possible solution is a liberal application of Tannerite.

Well, the coin I tried was pretty large (a quarter). I'll have to try the heat/cold thing tonight.

I put some lube on the threads before I put it back on, then I only hand tightened it, rather than tightening with a coin... hopefully that means I can get it off at will for now on!!! |
