Sticky Plastic Observation boards, I mean really sticky, like they are getting stuck in the groves.
Flex the plastic board. You can't break it. They are cut to fit snug and there is a center brace that is slightly below that grove. By flexing the plastic board and inserting it with the bowed side up, you will easily clear the center board and the foot at the opposite end.
7/27/09 I was doing the final assembly on our boards, putting our new Gridded Observation "Stickies" in them and it occurred to me to try the movie feature of our camera. This technique works with either Plastic 'Sticky'.

Tip: Apply your sticky (oil, Vaseline, Pam) to one side only. If you flip it over, the oily side acts like a dust magnet and the dirt sticks and doesn't just wipe off like oil or powdered sugar. You need to use soap and water and a little elbow grease and it cleans up beautifully.
The smoke hole cover won't stay in place.
That's the screw, it's has loosened in it's hole. Unscrew the piece , break a piece of toothpick and insert in the hole. Then screw back on. It should work great.
