Yes it's great BUT what idiot decided to recess the nut for one of the pivot bolts into soft plastic so it just spins around when you try to undo it! If your lucky you can put a clamp over the plastic and squash it to stop it spinning but if that doesn't work your left with drilling it out. Very dump design when the easy solution is either not to fully resets the nut or better still use the same design bolt as they did on the other pivot where you can get a 5mm hex key in both ends.
i think I'm going to cut some of the plastic away before I put it back together so I can get a thin wrench onto the nut in future.

I haven't had an issue after pulling a few apart but anyway - if you have a captive nut spinning then stick a small screwdriver in next to it and twist hard. Now it's jammed next to the nut, stops it spinning

The screw driver trick has worked in the past but not this time

Yup, very much the same problem here. Couldn't get it open when brand new, can't still get it open no matter the tricks. Cutting this one and buying new hinge (or was it the lever side?) seems an only option. And just for switching the rigging side. Totally agree, stupid design.
