h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Hey I'm a Trombone and a selection of other instruments player too, I've just applied for the H2G2 orchestra . Don't mean to complain but I hate wingnuts, they always get stuck and when you do get them off they go flying off under the furniture. Okay, rant over. Say hi when you have the time.

Hello! Better late than never... I'm not round here very often these days.

The trick with wingnuts is to cup your hand in such a way as to catch them when they fly off.

That, and don't put springs underneath them when screwing them on in the first place.
