Hi. love your videos. I so having a hard time hearing them though. keep smiling.
For the record, I couldn't get the screws to budge at all with a flathead screwdriver that fit perfectly into the screwdriver notch, and neither could an employee at Home Depot. For me, a torque wrench was absolutely necessary, but luckily, this cost me under $8.50.
Thanks for showing how to take the Bahco pruner apart. Very helpful. You mentioned you could oil the blades with WD-40, but I’ve heard that is not recommended for garden pruners.
