U could also try doing this or something similar in the future with a soldering iron. The heat given off one of these is sufficient enough to soften the plastic and is less likely to set fire to your part - as well as the rest of the house, remember kids safety first!!!!

Warren, I was blown away when I looked at this! It just looks amazing, well done!

I wish I had time to be knocking them out like I used to, but too much is happening here I guess!

Inspirational however, inspirational!!!
