>>5995694Shitty MSPaint diagram incoming.
The screws are technically long enough for the hole, IF the column was more structurally stable. Since it isn't, a bit shears off and gets stuck inside the hole of the piece that's screwed on, and the exposed part of the screw is now too short and tapered to get a decent grip on the other part.
Also it's super hard to take that shitty bit out of the hole, because it's screwed in but not fastened to the outer hole, and when you turn the screw the shitty bit turns too. You need to stick a pair of pliers in there and pin the bit down while you unscrew the screw. I needed an extra pair of hands to do it.
I avoid moving the handle on my Cynicus, anon is probably gonna have to get his Carnifex foot replaced. I wouldn't even bother trying the fix, that's too much weight on those pegs for them to hold.
Is MMC using screws that are too fat? Should they make those plastic columns thicker? I don't know what factor is causing the shear to happen but they need to fix it.
