Just thought I'd share some thoughts on tightning up a loose tilt column. There's a good Tech article on this website to help you through it, it's in the resource area. I wouldn't advise doing it yourself, (I just finished mine), if you have any of the following conditions: High blood pressure, Lack of patience, not enough hand tools, plans for the afternoon-after the job is done, or a short memory. Remember the Rubiks cube of the 80's? Well that column is just as fun. - BB
