You can make a tool via dremel, it will just take longer than "real" tools.

You can re-boot them. The Type44 boot is available seperately but is IDENTICAL to the B3/4 item.

BTDT, they have the same PN molded in even IIRC.

This'll have it out in less than 3 seconds, and it wont destroy the end.

Find out where the local "Snap-On" van/man visits...
