Loose limbs, from either crashing or tiny irregularities in the production of the materials, can be 
felt by gently wiggling your arms from time to time to verify a solid frame. If you find you have a 
tiny bit of wiggle, there is a simple solution.

Tape

Sand

Tape

If a limb is “loose” a small 
amount of electrical tape (or 
whatever tape that is paper 
thin) placed around the tops of 
the tabs of the limb and then 
the top plate locks it in place 
when it’s all re-assembled takes 
away the gap and results in a 
solid frame once again.

If a limb is “tight” (as in, can’t 
get the limb through the slot) a 
small amount of sanding across 
just the tabs should fix it.

Loose fit

Tight fit
