The heli-coil is a small coil (in the shape of a spring) that lines the screw
holes for the hoop arms. From what I understand (someone correct me if I'm
wrong), is that if you tighten the screws too tight, you can break/dislodge the
heli-coil. Once it's messed up, there's no going back.
Anyway, I'm not so sure gorilla glue is a good idea....
I now hand tighten the screws and then use a screw driver to tighten further
only 1/4 turn.
