Is there a tutorial on removing and replacing Heads?

Hi,
I was looking in CustoMego on the site, but couldn't seem to find a link. Could I get a few tips or could someone post a link if there is one. T1 and T2. Thanks.

Hi Steve, the most common way to change a vinyl head is to heat it with either a hair dryer or hot water, then squeeze, twist ,and pull. To put it back on the body you can heat just the neck plug and push it into the body hole at a slight angle to get part of the flange on the neck stem in,then continue to twist back and forth while pushing the head towards the body.
Hope this helps.

Thanks,Chris. That does help. I had been using just brute force and was working on a robin yesterday and thought I was going to rip the neck plug off.
