Took this quickly this morning before work. It's a terrible capture, that is completely out of focus, but I wanted to try to get the GID for those curious.

No tripod and a 30 second exposure =

So I think I just received the tube for You Are My Lucky Star - green variant from g1988. Anybody have any idea how I get this tube open? (metal ends)

Cut the tape all the way around that's about a quarter of the way down from the top of the tube. The top part of the tube should come off, then.

I remember having a very frustrating time on those type of tubes before I learned about this.

I've still got the bent remains of at least one Mondo endcap that I went to town on with those pliers.

Honestly, I never figured to just take the tube off at that cut. It never occurred to me, and instead I was getting angry with a can opener.
