[CAUT] breaking Bolduc glue joint?

Heat is best Patrick. 

We're actually liking André's glue for hanging hammers... nice consistency,
reasonable working time, gap-filling/no shrinkage and a rock-hard glue
joint. 

Anyhow, I won't laugh about your mistake, if you don't ask how we found out
that heat softens the glue!

Best regards,
Mark Cramer,

Subject: [CAUT] breaking Bolduc glue joint?

While putting a pedal lyre together yesterday, sleep deprived from  
watching election results, I (1) decided to use some Bolduc glue to  
reattach the lyre posts to the pedal box (first time using the stuff,  
no tech sheet came with the glue), and (2) allowed several  
interruptions to distract me to the extent that I glued the box in  
backwards!
What's the best way to go in loosening this new glue joint? Heat?
Feeling rather stupid,
