Powerlock HELP!!!

OK,

This is entirely my own stupid fault. I just bought a SOG Powerlock and love it. I decided to re-oil and clean the side with the scissors after applying what I felt was an overdose of threadlocker to the joints. Now, for the life of me, I can't get the scissors (spring)back together again! I consider myself rather handy, but I'm stumped! Help!

I'll call 888-SOG-BEST if I have to, but I love this thing (I have practically evry multi-tool ever made, including Leatherman, Gerber, Kershaw, and all SOG's) and would like to fix it before going through the trauma of sending it away for a couple of weeks.

Thanks,
Al
 
ROFLMAO!!!!
:D
It is a pain, but I think you can do it. I had a heck of a time, until I pulled out my back-up, another Powerlock...;)
I'll post a pic of the assembled scissors, just give me a bit to get Baby to bed, I am currently typing with 1 hand...:D :cool:
 
Pardon the grease...:D
E-Mail me if you need a bigger (or different) pic...

You, Sir, are a Gentleman and a Scholar! Thanks for the pic. After 4 tries (due to thick fingers), I finally got it!

Thanks again.
