How do you reassemble it? Mine came apart, and I can't get it to open without the bottom and top separating.

I have purchased two of these. One, I had no problems with, the other, just as you described. It does not go back together and stay that way. When I went to return, it had passed the return date.

Mine usually comes apart when I open it. The rings (decorative, I assume) slide on and the bottom part has threads. The instructions that came with the stylus were useless.

This stylus is a piece of junk....I contacted Amazon about returning it....They credited my account and said I could whatever I wanted with it....I threw it away!

You can probably take it apart again, there are a few screws involved but most of the parts just snapped together. Just keep the instructions!

We have not taken them apart. My husband and his friend assembled them in a short period of time. Sorry that I can't help with taking them apart.

I had the same question when I first opened the package containing the enclosure. The tiny screws weren't installed, but I couldn't figure out how to open it, so I came here to see what worked for other people. What worked for me was just giving the enclosure a slight 'shake' while holding it horizontally (holding the sides of the enclosure, not the top and bottom). That caused the metal bottom to fall out, then I easily removed the top. It's one of those things that once you see how it's done, it makes perfect sense. But until then, it can leave you scratching your head.

I just lifted it apart where the opening is on the side. It just snaps together.

There's a hole in the side that's not for a button, take a screw driver or something and just gap it apart. the rest is just gently applying force until it separates. I haven't found a better way to do it.

Sometimes you have to take the lid off and pull the pieces apart... it is made to do this when you wash it... then click it all back together and it will work.

You have to unscrew it like a top. Hold the top grooves with your hands and twist it off, hope this helps. I've had mine for nearly 3 years and it is just now falling apart, need to buy a new one!!

my housing is different than the picture, it's split right in the middle instead of towards the top, but there's no trick to opening it, sometimes it's just harder than others, be sure and put some vaseline on the rubber washer when you reassemble

the tabs on the sides lift them to open/separate the top from the bottom to snap back put them back together and re snap the 2 side tabs..hope this helps..

Hi Nana. Stubborn little thing isn't it? When I first tried it, I thought " Wow! This thing ain't right!", but it's just made that way. I assume that's because the assembly has a slight spring pressure that keeps it from coming apart before you're ready. There are two small "nubs" on the shaft of the orange plastic assembly that prevent the thing from just coming apart. You need to exert a little more force and it comes right out. I wouldn't use pliers or a screwdriver...well maybe a screwdriver (extra vodka please !)... but not a mechanical device. I hope this helps you out. ( It seems to come out easier each consecutive time.) Have a great day. Tony

Mine did not separate. In fact, I can't pull it apart so I would not think this was normal and I would exchange it for a new one.

The top comes assembled and is separate from the base. I am in the process of doing the same thing..

We made the same mistake--make sure the smaller section is turned full counter-clockwise relative to the white inner plastic piece that inserts into the upper handle. Then you should be able to reassemble them. Don't force the pieces together.

Take off the plastic pieces on top all of them and the tool will just screw on the top and come off. If this don't help you let me know I will send you a video of me taking mine apart.

I do not take it apart. I mix a small amount of bleach with hot water and soak the top completely. This kills everything.

There should be a small hole on the bottom (middle of the bottom)...we inserted an unfolded paperclip and wiggled until it opened. We had trouble with this too and also wondered why there were no tools/instructions included...Sorry I can't be more helpful!!
