Someone on this list suggested making index marks with a Sharpie after
tightening the knockoffs. I've been doing this a couple of years and they
self-tighten every time.

I advocate the Harbor Freight 4-lb shot filled rubber dead blow mallet.

Once had a stuck knockoff and my wood wrench went all to hell when the going
got tough.

That time I had to hold a 2x4 on the ear and hit it really hard with an 8-lb
steel sledge. Did the trick.
