I could’ve done it in like 10mins. Easy-peasy. Oxy-acetylene torch, fastener can’t be stuck if it’s a liquid.
It is being stored and a clean room that is temp controlled any heat or anything would contaminate the sample.
Thanks poindexter. It was a joke.

You’re a real Ray of sunshine, hope you have a great day
Well this whole thread restored my faith in humanity.
Also I snickered so it wasn’t completely lost.
Having a good day is easy when you’re not an asshole. You should experiment with that concept sometime.

A sentence needs to be funny to be a joke. Also, not everything needs a joke as a response.
I think it was fairly clearly a joke, and at least a little bit funny via absurdity, like suggesting nuking it to open it, or wrapping an elastic band around like a tight jar lid.
Not everything you read is serious unless otherwise stated.
Given that you aren’t the only audience to a response, even someone who recognizes that it’s a joke might add a little bit of context about, I don’t know, how melting the fastener might contaminate the sample or grinding the fasteners might cause dust and sparks that could also contaminate the sample, so on and so forth.
That all being said, are you okay? Kneejerk responses like that don’t usually come from good places.
I guess my other reply was too honest for the moderator, but they are cool with your rudeness?
Why are you being so rude?
Funny, not sure why people can’t understand it’s a joke. But I’ve learned my lesson that I always add /S when I do the sarc joke
Yeah, lot of people with zero chill
OP you need to work on your emotions and stop the clickbaity titles.
Haha, not my title, the article’s. I don’t change them too often because it disrupts my flow going through my RSS feeds while I select things I want to get into in depth myself, and I know publishers make these decisions for a reason. The text is pretty ok though. Feel free to downvote them.
Why didn’t they just use a socket wrench?
This is why you don’t send an scientest to do an engineer’s job
