Yep, exactly! Using the dikes, with small increments of pry (you could yank a pin out with one pry, but it would create a larger arc), you really don't enlarge the hole enough to notice. I looked at that new tool and figured I could do without it. Of course, if you've got to have the latest . . . I do think dikes and a fulcrum is easier and faster and less problematic than vice grips and hammer, too. Merry Christmas! I'm out of the U till January.
