Wow what would cause the barrels to look like they want to go in the opposite direction?
HAHA, I know everyone thinks I'm crazy. I bought a new diode and going to try that tonight. This is not rocket science. So simple, yet can't get it to work yet.
I'll post video if I can't get it working so everyone can see.
I sure don't think you are crazy!!... until I read your post, I thought maybe I was the only one suffering with this problem on the re-issue. I had chalked it up to not messing with it enough.
I also messed with the gap as mentioned in the instructions, though the methods for doing that in a measurable way seemed difficult, IIRC. I did not go too far with experiments regarding screwing it down to the table, though - so I will be very interested in learning if that ends up being the key to all of this.
