Removing the nipples... this was my biggest problem a couple months ago. I had two unfired guns from Pietta, and the gnome with the locktite and the air tool had apparently been assigned to the nipple installing station the day mine were made. And after soaking in BreakFree, Liquid Wrench, Hoppes solvent, ATF fluid and acetone, and other homemade recipes, and still distorting 3 different kinds of nipple wrenches, someone turned me onto the nipple wrench and ratchet from DixieGunWorks (probably get it other places too), but it got them out without even having to lock the cylinders in the vise.
(if you get the ratchet, be sure it's the revolver ratchet, there is more than one kind)
