[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1317974, member: 9096"] When I get one that's really hard to band I usually just wait.. Of course I don't have 500 of them either which is certainly a factor. Banding seems to be the easiest on them.. Once in a while I can do it while they lay down and don't even have to flip them over, so it's certainly low stress. Someone on Facebook Cow talk posted a picture of a little piece of wood, made of 1/4" plywood with a 2" long 3/8" wide slot to help with banding.. you just get the two nuts, slide the 'fork' above them, and then you can fiddle around with the banding pliers without losing one of them. Seemed like a really slick, simple idea. [/QUOTE]
