   Can't get radio back in its case

   Gentlemen,   
      
   I had a really strong urge to smash a vintage radio into smithereens   
   earlier today. I just couldn't get the damn thing to go back into its   
   case. The chassis assembly is fouling on something and it's preventing   
   it from re-seating. Plus it nipped my fingers when I tried to force it   
   in. I just wanted to destroy it so badly. I could have totally smashed   
   it to bits with a club hammer to be honest.   
   It just gives me a renewed admiration for repair technicians. I don't   
   know where they get their patience and forbearance from. I have very   
   little, personally. Maybe that's why I'm not a repair tech.
