<p>[QUOTE="ascot, post: 189035, member: 96"]Progress report: no success yet. I first tried alcohol, didn't work. Tried wrapping the lower outer portion with a paper towel soaked in nearly boiling water and leaving the alcohol on top, didn't work. Put it in the freezer, tried to loosen it after 30 minutes, then after an hour, didn't work. Turned it upside down, stuck a narrow wooden dowel through the holes and tapped it with a hammer, didn't work. I'm going now to try warming the outside with a hairdryer.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
