Had a quick chat with both StayJohn and Hurb ('this isn't normal, could try some vaseline'), but finally got them both to sit flush as directed, and my hands fucking hurt.

Needed to rotate the arm away from the strings to do it; I guess that way you're not directly pushing down on the spring quite so much by keeping the arm steady with your other hand.

Never realised the 00 in the middle of D00g were the same as is "fuckin' n00b".

Never knew the 'M' in 'Tim' stood for MEAN
