<p class="MsoNormal">This is a common problem with our holder, but it is easily correctible with some pointed pliers to bend the wires that connect the clamping mechanism to the holder. All you need is some decisiveness, as these things can smell the fear and
then the ring at the tip ends up flying and resting at the most inaccessible corner under the microscope (invariably). Good luck!<o:p></o:p></p>
