I got some request about what happends if aluminium rings are overtightend and what will happend.
I made this video to se when you tighten the screws as hard as possible.

I don't think this is espesially good to our rings, I simply just belive that mostly kinds of aluminium quality rings are plenty stronger than some people belive.

Note that there are no threaded inserts in the holes.
