These replies have bee reassuring, thanks guys. I’ll continue to be extra careful when opening up my throws. I know this is impossible to quanitfy, but how tight do you guys screw your throws back together? I’ve been erring on the side of caution, and definitely making sure I don’t hulk squeeze them as that does seem like it could cause some issues. I usually spin the halves until they stop spinning freely, then tighten until I feel resistance. Then one solid snug down and viola! Haven’t had any come loose on me, and they come apart without much force at all, so I don’t think im overtightening, but maybe theyd be fine with even less --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.yoyoexpert.com/t/un-screwed/299096)._
