Re: Breaking RBT's?

[P3D Richard <Richard@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Just tried mounting some slides with my first RBT mounts and I'm not having as much luck 
as Jamie.  One out of about 15 mounts is "defective" in that I'm not able to fit one of 
the pins into a hole.  Haven't tried the brute-force method to force it in yet. <g>

I'm a total beginner at mounting, but I have to say I don't find the RBTs that much 
easier than the aluminum mounts.  Actually I don't find the mounting process much fun at 
all just yet.  So far it's pretty frustrating, in fact.  Seeing the mounted slides in my 
Dr. T. Red-Button viewer IS fun, and hopefully the mounting process will become easier 
and more enjoyable.
