drawing oil out of amps

[gettingbigger816]

This is the first time i have ever used amps. i have test depot and it is bitch drawing it out of the amps. Does anyone have any tips on how to make this easier? Also, what does an amp opener do and is it worth getting one?

Using a 18 gauge drawing needle should help suck up the juice if your not using one. Then switch to a 23 g to shoot.

Would also like some help on this subject.I've been taping the amp to the table to draw. I'm sure there has got to be a better way.

Huh? lol I never heard of that method. Just break it open and draw w/ one hand and hold the amp w/ the other. Nothing too it bro..

I got an amp opener from the net ... I just run the amp under warm water... then dry it off ... open it up with the amp opener... use an 18g to draw .. then 22g to shoot ... I always use the 18 to draw just cause its easier to aspire the juice and I dont have to worry about using a dull needle from the needle scraping against the glass ...

My best friend installs glass and windows for living. He says he uses one of his little glass scorers. He also said they are like 2 or 3 bucks or something. Im not sure how well it works but he said its easy as craup. Im getting one next week Ill post and let ya know. By the way the little score pieces you can get at most glass SUPPLY shops (not window shops) but the actual distributors. There all over just check your phone book --- They look like pencils with little wheels on the end.

I do the same thing, I have an amp opener too, they are cheap and work good. I use a 25g for the calf/ quad/ shoulder, and 23g for the butt!
