I found that = turning the pins out by hand can actually heat the pinblock wood more. I = determined that the quickest I can get the pin out of the hole, the less = heating overall occurs. I think you would have to turn the pin very slow = (like maybe less than 1/4 revolution per second) to avoid heating the = pin. Consequently, I use a 1/2" or 13mm drill motor with a star socket = at 500 rpms or more, which will normally extract the pin in around two = seconds. Surprisingly, the pins while warm, come out cool enough to = handle. ------=_NextPart_001_009E_01BFB13C.97C83DE0 An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
