Re: [Harp-L] A loose screw ( and it wasn't me)

["scooter" <10hole@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I use nail polish on a lot of fasteners. Go to the dolar store and get a 
thing of clear nail polish and you'll have
enough to do about a thousand harps. The nail polish will also be soft 
enough to take apart in the future
without stripping the screw head. Just a tiny dab on the screw threads at 
the nut after it's all assembled is all it takes.
