Default RE: problem with blind nuts

Sometimes you gotta play around to get it where you want.. and it can be a mess.


I have on occasion, threded a screw into the blind nut from the back... slipped a piece of fuel tube on the screw (again from the back) then stuck nyrod in the fuel tube. You now can PUSH the screw into the back of the plywaood's pre-drilled hole. You have screw threads to get a large washer and nut on and can use that to pull the blind nut into the plywood.

Then... you gotta get the screw out without knocking the blind nut out of the plywood. and that can also be a pain.
