Thanks.

So let me understand you, you ask a question looking for "any" answer, we give you one and now you are complaining!
It really doesn't take long, just a few seconds a nipple extra.
The reason I like this method is that the nipple will not slip off the "tool "insuring proper insertion (and easier reinserting), great to work at any angle.
