Posting here because I know a lot of the DIR guys use halcyon plates. Need a quick answer:
I have a steel plate with the very thin halcyon pad attached. The screws holding it on just spin when turned with a screwdriver. So how the hell do you get it off? The female piece from the other side just spins with the screw. The screw head is so large in relation that holding it with pliers isn't working out so well either. Suggestions? I am hoping to use my argon bottle for the first time tomorrow so I need to get a couple of these off to mount it. There's no rust, everything gets soaked for HOURS in fresh water after every dive day.
Thanks for any quick tips.
