I was over hauling my RT valve for the first time ( I've used it for 3 years :) ) and couldn't see how to remove or reinstall the little O-ring in the middle of the on/off assembly. Can someone clue me in?

If you're talking about what I think you are, you're talking about the on/off small oring. When you unscrew the on/off bottom from the on/off top it should be inside the on/off top still. Use a pick of some kind to get it out if you need to.

Somewhat related: When I got my Plastic nubbins I took some of my wire ones and bent them into tools for the removal of certain hard to reach orings. That way they're still useful

You can use small wrenches to get the on/off assembly apart if it won't unscrew by hand, but be careful not to damage anything.
