One other thing...I drilled out the hole slightly bigger... I don't recommend it...but it solved almost all my problems.. I still get drips someone here said they drilled a hole in the bottom of the stand for the lead to go through I use a small lid under it to catch. Splattering lead is as bad as swatting a wasp nest!...now I also use a scratch all screw driver to stick in the hole from under neath while I re- load hooks...cleaning is the correct solution. But I don't clean mine every time ....one thing for sure...please...I know one guy cleaning his got lead poisoned and has about 30% lung function...what ever you do do it out side when cleaning!
