I don't think they are made to take apart easily, and that is not an
easy job. It's like some kind of puzzle, and comes apart and goes back
together only in a certain order.


To be fair, that's true of most machinery - unless you like your pistons
outside your engine.

They're fun, though. I haven't used one for ages, but from time to time
they're more handy than a hydraulic jack. Looks like you've had fun.
