already exist) which uses the socket as a support base and pulls the chip
up much like a screw-type cork remover works for wine bottles." <<<
Steve:
Earlier this year, someone left a message here describing just such a
method. What they did was put a drop of super glue on the old Agnus at dead
center and place a small machine nut on to it. After the super glue
hardened, he took a long machine screw that matched the nut and tightened
it into the nut. Then he was able to simply pull the Agnus out by its new
'handle'. A drop of super glue remover would leave the old Agnus as good
as new.
