The preload between nut1 and nut2  and the preload between nut3 and nut4 are what make the contact. Takes two wrenches to get it tight enough.


Speaking of which, it's hard to find wrenches thin enough to lock two 6-32 or 8-32 nuts together. I have one old, cheap, Craftsman set that works, but sooner or later I'm going to lose one of those up on the tower. All the small wrench sets ("Ignition Wrenches") available seem to be too thick. Short of grinding them down, does anyone know where to get thin ones in SAE sizes?
