Good call Andy! Either I got lucky or you were unlucky, It's not worth the

chime in with his new design for the "Universal Dampener Puller". Something
involving a surplus ICBM booster rocket and several rolls of duct tape
perhaps?

I broke the front cover that way. I was using a steel cushion like you

puller.
