[TowerTalk] Loosening Al tubing to Al Tubing

[Don W7WLL]

Read all the posts and agree with the penetrox, nolox, corrosionblock, or 
whatever compound one uses, essential when putting al to al element pieces 
together. This I was well aware of.

As I noted this element is a piece of inherited stuff from the junk pile.

Don't have any horses to pull so will shy away from that idea.

But the limited use of Kroil or the 50% acetone and 50% xmission fluid are 
worth trying. I'm not a big fan of WD-40 except for a few automotive uses. 
Has its purpose but I find it does not hold up outside.

What was as interesting as the 'how to get 'em apart' was the discussion 
about finishing/cleaning up these pieces once disassembled.

Thanks again all for all the input and it is always fascinating to see how a 
discussion evolves.

Lots of experience out there!!
