Ora plugs

[FMF0331]

Can the ora black plugs be trimmed down - or cut off. Don't want to snap off the sps from the plug

You can squeeze the plug with a wrench and the frag will pop off or dremel the plug.

Just dremel the plug. What a "pita"

part of the point of the plug is hollow and can be simply cut with a wire cutter or a coral cutter or some other form of cutter. towards the base closer to the bottom of the frag is solid and will need to be dremmeled off

I had to dremel the bottom half of the plug off, the sps was already encrusting the upper part of the plug and didn't want to damage / kill the growth. Hopefully i can post some pictures later this week

That is the best you can do!

I bought a bone cutter just to cut the plugs protruding part off.

time to buy a inland band saw Tom lol

Bone cutters didn't work for me.:irked: I just ended up gluing it sideways onto a rock in order to hide the stupid plug.:tongue1:
Why does ORA use these ugly plastic black plugs anyway?

 

[FMF0331]

The black plugs must be a trademark of some sort.
Kevin, i have the inland band saw, i just don't have an outlet for it.. Lol
i'll stick to my dremel for now
