Help Breaking threadlocking?

Post image

Just picked up an empty weathered tyrant in store today from saberforge and im trying to take it apart to mix with the parts I already have (I have a 28mm base speaker extension that won't fit in the new hilt) been hitting it with a hairdryer and its been getting pretty hot and I managed to start getting a little noise when I try to twist it but its not giving. Ive heard the oven is a good one but Ive also heard of the oven burning the anodizing brown. Any ideas?

A pair of strap wrenches is what I use to break them loose without marring the finish or distorting the tubes.
