Quick (Possibly dumb) head question...

Posted in Custom Workstation

I'm looking to reattach a head I popped off for a paint job. It doesn't want to go back on now. Do I need to heat it up first or should it just pop back on?

lol, Sometimes I get too lazy to do it heat and put the head back on. I just sand the neck peg a bit and it slips on with not that much pressure. just a push in.

yeah, I did the old heat and pop to get it off, but given the shape of the neck pin, it looked like it might just slide back on, but I gave it hell, and figured I'd have to heat it up again after that. I was just making sure I wasn't a complete idiot and missing something.

With any luck, I'll actually finish up tonight if I have a minute and post some pics.

No problem and no worries.

There are no stupid questions.
