[Rhodes22-list] Pop top slider on IMF mast

[R22RumRunner at aol.com]

Ken,
The only problem I have with disassembling the slider is that the whole  
thing rely's on the strength of the threads in the UHMWPE. The more they are  
used, the weaker they will become. Loctite doesn't work with this stuff  
either.

I have IMF and my slider is composed of several parts  which are screwed
together. by diassembling them i could insert the parts  through the slot,
and with a couple of coat hangers and long self griping  type screw drivers,
re assemble it in place.
