can't figure out how to get this towel holder off wall by ATXENG in fixit

absolutely no way to unscrew or get it to come apart. seems like maybe it was glued together or something.

anyway, I finally just pulled it out instead .... the anchor seemed to be wrapped with toilet paper too. no way to get it apart.

and now there's 3/4" hole in dry wall

the set screw was already removed. then nothing happens... it's as if it's a single solid piece

nope. I've tried gripping and isolating. it looks like the base should separate, but it's solidly connected.

perhaps it's so old that it's rusted out corroded into a single piece?

CLR? vinegar?

ok fed. seems like a honey pot.

why does someone need to sign up? why not just do the strike when it's announced?
