Hey,
you guys know of any ways to nicely respringify the BFA style connectors.

I've got some on the ends of some AQ stuff, and they slip outta my amp holes when they shouldn't. Not a fan, but like the cables.

Thanks.

    Punch you knucklehead. Try a steel or brass punch that has a taper. Punch into the end of the BFA
    Try not to overthink it next time😉

    An ingenius fellow could make those BFA banana's and design an Elastomer to go inside and to prevent this very problem. JUST sayin.

    Doug made me some cables for my HT, they have rubber/polymer inserts inside the bananas so they always fit tight. I don't know if the bananas came that way from the company or if Doug added them.

    Doug actually has a guy in the shop who whittles those inserts down from large blocks of polyurethane.

    I might have a couple of those Furez connectors that I bent. I save everything, just in case.

    Anyone need any half inch crayons from 1977?

    I saw on one of those hoarders show where someone saved their vacuum cleaner's bags from when "times were good" or something like that. I think they also saved their toe and finger nail clippings.

    You don't have it that bad, right?

    I just wanted to clarify this - my lack of timely response was not a shame driven withdrawal prompted at being caught out for saving finger nail clippings. I do not save those. I mean, they can't possibly serve any purpose...

    can they?

    If you save enough of them and then put them in a food processor with a few different chemicals you can make your own glue.
