Tall_Paul said:Quick question for someone!
From the excellent advice I've read here, you adjust before tightening the head (if I've read it correctly).
So, if you want to alter the setting mid shave I take it loosen the head again then? Is that correct? And how far do you loosen it (if so)?
Sorry if these have been answered before, I couldn't find the answer in my page trawl.

I'm not pissing on your trousers Chris but I've yet to hear of a vintage adjustable go twang while it's being adjusted with the doors wound up, I doubt they would have lasted 50 odd years if they were that fragile, just one of those memes that works I suppose.

Might not go twang exactly, but it is putting an unnecessary strain on the internals - which could deform permanently with no outward sign of damage...
hunnymonster said:Right - but since it's possible to over (or underclock) it intentionally - it's obviously possible to do it unintentionally, more likely when it's under pressure because you may not detect the overforce.
End of the day - why risk it?
