Oh I did labor to get this out of the spall.
Snaped the ear with just a tiny bit of pressure??

Tracker0721:
Well if you feel you can't handle it I'll be happy to munch it into glitter for ya  >:D

mullet:
That's why I like Dacite.

caveman2533:
Heat it and I am not kidding

Zuma:
Heck I'll try some Steve. Do you have a temperature?
Soak time? Thanks
