Thank you all for your ideas.  Yes, I know people sell LED bulbs.  I 
wanted to do some non-standard things.  I am talking about small 
automotive bulbs, so the hardware store stuff for table lamps is a 
little too big.  And I can't knock out the black ring in the 
bottom.  I kind of need that when I put them together.  I have 
concluded that heat is helpful if I don't get too carried away with 
it.  Also, the stuff is strong, but it is brittle, so I've had more 
success with a sharp blow than a lot of gouging.  There doesn't seem 
to be any magic solution, but with a little practice, I can do a few 
for a little experimenting.  So, I just wanted to sum this up before 
asking my next question.  Stay tuned...
