    I agree with Splints above

    but it is difficult to ressurect something that is failing - might need a re-do

    I'm not sure what I'm looking at, or how far it can be disassembled
    however, teh best solution would be a knock down fitting -- which one will depend on how it all goes together and how much it can be disassembled to install it.

    after opening all the holes tested it before glueing notice the holes were just short

    after increasing the depth i got it all worked out.
