      Same problem I'm having now, freakin' thing feels like it's welded with rust, won't budge. Tried the grippy thing for opening bottles that are stuck. Guess I'll have to go get some gorilla gloves or something that will grip easier.

      @@Dixey3 your gonna want to use WD-40 with you non dominant hand holding the bowl and push it up so then when you spray the wd40 it actually goes in and then wait like 5 mins then go back and try twisting again but still twist hard and once you get it off use wd 40 on all the parts that are rusted and then don't tighten the parts on so tight when you put it back on so then it comes right off next time

    The main screw came off easily, but I was surprised to find a very thin nut still holding up the glass dome. I am completely unable to get a grip on the nut with my fingers, and haven't been able to find a tool the right size. I suspect my kitchen will now be eternally in the dark.

    I’ve got the same light cover. I had to replace the light bulb in two different ones. I was able to remove the screw of the first and change the bulb, but on the second one, I keep unscrewing the screw but it won’t come out or unscrew? Any tips or help on how I could get the screw out to change the bulb?
