What should I do if I used the wrong pins when converting my SlackBoard?Updated an hour ago

If you accidentally used the wrong roll pins while converting your SlackBoard, the line may be too tight to remove the pins normally. Don’t worry—there are a couple of ways to release enough tension to remove them.

Option 1: Loosen the line by jumping
With the SlackBoard securely positioned, repeatedly jump on the line to help loosen the tension. Use a sturdy counter or the back of a couch for balance if needed. As the line begins to loosen, you should be able to wiggle one of the line pieces out.

Option 2: Use a ratchet strap
Loop a motorcycle tie-down or ratchet strap around the entire SlackBoard and carefully tighten it to bring the ends of the board slightly closer together. This will reduce tension on the line so you can wiggle one of the pieces out.

These methods can help you remove the existing line without having to cut it and replace it.
