Forgive me if this is a dumb question, but won't screwing the screw really tight
restrict movement of the mechanism? Or is it built to work around that? I make
sure my screws are snug, but I don't tighten them to the point where I don't
think I can get them out again (at least on the pivot screws - the rods seem to
take care of themselves).

Loc-Tite and nail polish will keep the screw from backing out, but they're
still first aid and don't address the underlying problem, which is that the
screw is binding inside the moving part of the assembly - the hollow rod in
the case of your rings. You should be able to torque a screw quite hard so
it doesn't work loose.
