I've been reading about mic rigging using a hellerman sleeve tool. So, I picked one up and have a few cheap lavaliers to experiment with. However, I haven't been able to find clear instructions on how to actually use it.
Here are a few specific questions that I'm hoping to have answered...I apologize in advance if they are obvious:
1. How much lubrication do you use? Any other tricks to get the sleeve onto the tool easily?
2. How do you get the prongs aligned correctly? (to form the cone-like shape so the sleeve can slide on...I haven't been able to get mine perfect)
3. How do you get the sleeve/mic/etc off of the tool when you're done?
