If metal try GENTLY heating the thread, the metal will shrink a tiny bit and then it should shift. If that fails give it to a chick. They always have that knack of getting lids of jam jars! | |

| Heating metal makes it expand. Spray a little WD-40 in the gap at the top of the thread and let it sit for half an hour, then spray a little more then wait again then try. The WD-40 will work down and lube it up nicely. It also wont do any damage to electrics though I wouldn't go pumping it into the capsule. Also, I take no responsibility for anything. ;)
