Hi
1st post - so be nice to me
I often have to remove old olives - and keep thinking to myself - there must be an easier way to do this? Is there any kind of special tool on the market or maybe a technique that I haven't thought of?
Currently I use the following method. Not very technical - but I'm no pro.
Bash the back of the nut against the olive - using an adjustable wrench around the pipe. If the olive is fairly new - this tends to remove them. However, if they are old and have been squeezed too hard - they don't budge. So my next step is usually to cut the pipe shorter and make good by adding a new section of pipe. This works, but often there is not much room for manoeuvre, so wondered is there is a better way?
