Thanks, useful to know specifically where the failure happened.
Anyone using gear like this: Use LockTite Threadlocker or something similar on all threaded parts meant to stay put!
Howdy, new /r/HappyBuckmarkOwners member!
Some Buckmark pointers:
If you're feeling adventurous:
Screw is probably close to stripped. Throw some Loctite on the threads and tighten it back up. The blue loctite is semi-permanent, meaning you can remove it in the future if you choose.
Use this
The 0801 was discontinued as of June 1, so they should be starting to hit clearance prices. Kershawguy has it for $139 w/ free shipping and no sales tax. It is a great design. I've actually ended up with multiple of the different variants of this, but haven't had one of the "plain" ones. Maybe now is an opportune time to pick one up. ;)
As for the pivot coming loose, a bottle of threadlocker runs about $5 online or at your local hardware store. If you plan to be tinkering with your knives at some point, it's definitely worth picking one of these up. A single bottle will last you quite a long time.
oh my! Thank you for the detailed info and for providing technical information. For the lags, i'm still coming familiar with the vocabulary here- would that be a product like the SDW EWP-Ply Screw?
Some of that is higher level than im potentially capable of this summer I think, so I'll start with the spirals.
​
For the locktite, I presume we'd want to use a product like this
​
Thank you again for the suggestions!
I'd use more than just a drop with that stuff. Personally, I'd put enough to make sure two to three threads of the fitting are covered. Your stuff isn't as strong needs more.
When people say they used loctite, they're usually talking about the blue stuff which is different. link: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000I1RSNS
I use Loctite blue threadlocker. It will hold it in place, but will still allow you to remove the bat when you actually want to remove it.
Any auto parts store has it or here is the amazon link.

Probably. could be wrong though. Regardless it's pretty cheap.
Here is a relatively cheap supply list:
Loctite Blue 242:

Nano-Oil 10 weight:

Torques:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000LQEUJ0/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_yvS9ybNJ3JZ9A
There are probably better torques but l think these will work. I have a $45 set so I didn't think that is really cheap lol
Not sure why it's happening but just a touch of Loctite Blue should fix that
I transitioned into working on my bikes almost entirely by myself (Wheel building/suspension service/bearings excluded) and this is the exact path I went down as well. Here is everything I bought from Amazon:
The same $50 tool kit
Torque wrench
Cable/housing/wire cutter
Chain/quick link pliers
Wet/Dry Chain lubes
Park Tool grease
Degreaser
Blue Loctite
Carbon grip paste
And some additional small things like cables, cable end caps, ferrules, zip ties, etc. A set of needle nose pliers can be handy to help push/pull stubborn cables/housings as well.
Also, to make working on the bike 10x easier, I recommend getting a stand. I use this one because I am space constrained and it folds up nice and small, but there are probably better ones out there.
It seems like a lot of $$ to lay out at first, but it pays for itself pretty quickly compared to taking the bike to a shop every time you need to do something to it. Basically everything you need to do can be found on YouTube as well.

Be sure to clean the screw threads first with acetone. This will remove any old Loctite or dirt so that the new Loctite will adhere. Use Blue Loctite: http://amzn.to/2xpsbl6 but only a small amount, don't over do it.
I got this, this, this, and this. If you're doing it only once then it may be worth it, but if you're gonna do it for multiple sights then you might wanna get the tools.
Yep, no new gear or anything needed.
Keep in mind you have to swap out the AT gear and and retension belts when swapping to the street gear.
By the way, buy this before your board arrives.

I swapped from AT to Street and unlocked some of the screws too far so I lost the loctite and my tension would come loose in 30 seconds of riding and I'd be like UGH and then I had to uber home. Today after 12 hours of sealing it, 11 miles and tension is still great
a little bit of thread lock like https://www.amazon.com/Loctite-Heavy-Duty-Threadlocker-Single/dp/B000I1RSNS/ref=br_lf_m_7j4nsxzjbsum5b8_img?_encoding=UTF8&s=hi works great
I had the same problem. I put a little loctite on mine and left off the lock washer.
How often do you change the blade on the squeegee? You can put loctite on the threads of the screws, but it might take a bit of effort to get them back off if you have to change the rubber piece very often.
Try some BLUE loctite on the set screw. It will hold it in place but can be removed still. If you use red loctite it usually requires heat to remove the screw.

I don't have any balisongs with screws but I've seen around this subreddit people recommending blue loctite and roughly following the procedure outlined this video. I've used this product on many types of small screws like knives and it seems to work well (even though the tube is red, it is the blue specification).
I upvoted you so hopefully someone with experience could either disprove me or back me up.
You need to use Threadlocker when you put any screw, nut or bolt into a machine that will experience vibration.

I have those stands too. They're nice!
If they're wobbly for you, I would recommend unscrewing it and dabbing a little Loctite on the screws. Worked wonders for me. Handy stuff to have around in general, saves my butt a few times per year.
https://www.amazon.com/Loctite-Threadlocker-Red-0-20-209741/dp/B000I1RSNS/
I don't think that is the right loctite. That stuff is super glue not threadlocker. Threadlocker isn't permanent like super glue.
I personally use the blue.
Go buy some thread locker or something like it. Take the screws out, put a little on and you shouldn't have this problem anymore.

That's the same slate we used on our film. It's a fine piece of kit that Does The Job. The 'color bars' are just ink printed and wear off over a month's use (see pic). It's the same kit you get on Amazon, they're just shipping directly from China.
Pro Tip: Put Loctite on the screws at the hinge of the sticks. They don't have washers and they fall off during production.
I also recommend this. Optionally, a five gallon bucket and an ice scraper for scraping small parts off your magnet also come in handy. Most importantly, have fun!
everyone in the forums is using blue loctite for their bearings because they would like to remove them at some point again to clean or replace the bearing. I would recommend using that to seat the bearing.
Not a dumb question exactly, you're just not putting in the effort!

Google is your friend :)
Loctite*
....to lock down your bolts. tight. :P
Also for the screw on your towel hanger, try getting some Loctite.
No problem grasshopper. Those stems are actually hard to remove, so congratulations. This makes it easier for the knob issue, now you can soak it in kero laced with PB and it will come, you can also mount the stem in a vice (use scrap wood or leather to protect the threads. As to the stem, clean it well, then when you reinsert it use some Loctite and it will be fine. Vintage tool restoration is not for the faint of heart. Again, patience, and you will overcome.....

Gotcha! Well as long as it’s the ‘blue’ threadlock one your all set👍 heres an example
There is potential for the screws to release.
Go ahead and get some, it's cheap and will keep your quad from coming apart mid-flight.
Cool!
Thanks for the update!
Did you use threadlock to secure the bolts? Bolts wiggle free under normal use, but they don't with threadlock! :D
Also, carry a few spare bolts with you, because even the very best will wait till the worst possible moment before breaking! :(
Right, this is exactly the issue that's happening.
There are three solutions:
This is what mine looks like. You can buy them from pretty much any hardware store. Just ask for M5 nylocks. They have a plastic bit inside (color doesn't matter). You can bring in one of your prop nuts just to double-check and confirm they're M5.
I use an 8mm ratchet wrench, the ratcheting capability is VERY important, it'll cut down your swap time by 90%.
Ah, now that I'm looking I even see .2oz: https://www.amazon.com/Loctite-Heavy-Duty-Threadlocker-Single/dp/B000I1RSNS
Yeah, it's just a thread sealant; keeps the threads from banging loose over time (which they do). UK might have a different version, but loctite is pretty prolific, I'd be surprised if you don't have it. Link below off the US market for reference; this is the blue stuff, which will keep the threads from coming loose, but will still let you remove it if you actively try. Another nut could work, but thread sealer is better for the purpose; it's also cheap, and the tiniest bottle will last a very long time. It only takes a drop or two on the threads.

Which do you recommend?
I believe some DW screws are set permanently with Loctite. I may be wrong about your situation.
You could grab some light-weight loctite like loctite blue: https://www.amazon.com/Loctite-Heavy-Duty-Threadlocker-Single/dp/B000I1RSNS/
Then put a very very small amount on the threads, screw them as tight as you can, and let them sit. They'll be secure. And since you're using something like loctite instead of super glue, you can still unscrew them (though it'll take a lot more effort)
Loctite
lubricant for Bali
This stuff will work and is removable (with a little effort) if you need to remove the joystick in the future. I use it to secure the nuts to the bolts on my car's brakes.

Try to apply this product on the screw which tight the motor mount to the truck. based on what the boosted customer service said, those screws were designed to hold motor mount to the truck, temporarily while the epoxy completely dry. But, thread locker and screw hold motor mount really well. It has been almost 4months after I apply thread locker. and it still holds with any problem. but send them back to boosted before ur warranty ends just for check up, which i ll do pretty soon:)
Make sure to leave ur board for 24hours after u apply thread locker. make sure do not touch or ride for 24hours!!
You are getting horrible advice and this thread is complete shit. Here is exactly what you need:
Vice.
Upper Vice Block.
Torque Wrench 1/2”.
Anti-Seize Grease.
Blue Loctite.
Punch Set.
Torx & Allen Set.
The reason people are recommending an armorers wrench is for the muzzle break install. Every armorers wrench has a slot designed for installing one. This isn’t mandatory because you can use a regular wrench but you might as well get one because you will need one to build a lower when installing the castle nut.
screws fell out after i disassembled to install a ssd
i heard that blue loctite is what they use to make sure they stay, might get some soon if it happens again
I'd recommend this too.
Thats relatively flush which means you need to thread it more.
You’re installing this with a front sight tool, correct? Regular home depot tools will not suffice (trust me I tried and ruined...)
If not, this is a decent budget one that hasn’t let me down in 6 months—my Ameriglo tool has tho
Also get some Loctite
Most hardware stores will have it on the shelf, just be careful not to buy the permanent red variety.
Otherwise, Amazon to the rescue.
If the buzzing is your only problem get some loctite and apply a little bit to all the screws after setting it up. Fixed the buzzing on my Jazzmaster in 10 seconds. Just make sure you get the non permanent type so you can readjust it if needed. I almost guarantee the problem is just the screws not the whole bridge.
