@roger,
Yeah. I finally figured out how to take the filter thingie apart, which is part of prepping it.
It just showed 2 hands pulling it apart, leaving out the fact In reality you needed either a 3rd hand, or fingers made of steel that were 1/8 inch in diameter.
Had to watch 2 or 3 different youtube videos until I could see someone doing it.
Still couldn't manage it with my weak little lady hands and fingers, and ended up jamming one of the blades of a pair of scissors into one of the indentations, and cramming a finger into the other, and randomly pulling.
Now I'm done for the night, having used up all my available spatial brain power.
