I plan on putting it up again soon. Someone complained that a narrative on historical death is inappropriate for RU-vid. You can however download it for free at www.deathinamerica.com
@@JROlivero Thank you! (...I'd venture that the complaints prove the point. Our cultural history around the universal topic of death needs to be re-remembered. We've has chosen to forget so much.)
I just did this myself. The trick is to heat the oven up to 170-200 degrees for an hour or so first (I turned it on and then went to the store to buy replacement bulb). That causes the aluminum housing for the glass to expand, making it easier to unscrew the glass cover by hand. No need to use special tools or lubricants.
@@JROlivero Probably very late, long waiting times, airports, long trip on his back, etc. people who don't do this for a living may not understand that when you finally get on stage you may be already destroyed and looking forward to get it done and go to bed;
I brought my first Norman Brown cassette at Sound Warehouse music store in Oak Cliff off of Hwy 67 at Polk st in Big D back in tha day, just an awesome
HoooYah!!! Lucky for me I have one of those adjustable spanner wrenches that I have never used and had for years hanging in my shop. Worked like a charm!
I recently had to replace a light bulb in my oven with that type of cover. I didn't have the hook device, but I used a standard rubber jar opener - and it worked like a charm! (It's essentially like opening a stuck jar lid) Just took a little 'oomph' to get it to unscrew.
Love your post! I soaked it for two days and was wondering what I was doing wrong? I like your thinking and video, now I know I can cut it without damaging anything. Thanks!
Dremel saw worked like a charm! I cut just short of the stem and cut it in 5 spots around the post then used a flat head screw driver to pry it off. Worked like great!
A good way of getting the glass cover off, warm the oven to 200 C and let cool to about 50. Use gloves with anti slip, turn anti clock wise. If not successful with gloves use that tool as showed or use pliers with tape wound over the tips. Warming it helps soften the grease . It worked for me while everything ells failed.
Thank you SO much! I happen to have in the kitchen a tool just about like the one you show. The glass cover was pretty stuck as far as hand rotation, but the tool worked well. Then the glass part of the bulb unscrewed from its base leaving the base still in the socket. Following guidance, I unplugged the appliance. I have some very long-point and narrow pliers, with which I was able to crimp the bulb base sides inward, breaking the base's hold on the socket without stressing the socket too much. Fortunately the bulb base is thin metal so it yielded to that inward crimp easily. All done. I put silicone spray on the bulb threads and on the glass cover threads so maybe in future they will unscrew without force. Again, thank you so much for the video!
Thanks for your notes! You can also use a potato on the base of a bulb when the glass breaks/separates from it. The potato grabs the base and acts as an insulator allowing you to unscrew the remaining portion.
