Hey Kettle Gang
I'm restoring my K code kettle and need some advice on how to get the hex bolt off so I can put in a new set of vent blades. I already managed to remove the wing nut and lever with lots of WD40. So all that's left is the hex nut but it won't drop out when I tap it with a rubber mallet.
Also, I noticed on Amazon that one can't get the vent kit with the hex nut anymore. The only option now is the H-style vent kit. Would have been nice to get the hex nut version to keep it all original. If you know where one can still get them please let me know.
Any advice appreciated, thanks.
