Here is a pic of my tumber.


The RED arrow points to one of the TANGs.. not the one I'm grinding but the stop position tang.

The BLUE arrow points to my TWISTED end that fits into the white plug.



Thats virtually a photocopy of what mine looks like regarding the twist. Don't bother trying to twist it back.... I did this but within a few days it had resorted back to it's previously twisted position. I ended up grinding half of the tang off to get the rotation. The proper fix is to buy a new tumbler mechanism... but I'm cheap (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I'll leave it, now that it works, until the problem rears it's head again then I'll buy a new tumbler mechanism.
