Hey guys
Not sure if this has been added to the removal forums yet.
I know that many advise using a torch to heat things up to remove a STUBBORN prop, well for those of you who don't have flame the most kick ass metho is......once the prop puller is under tension pour BOILING water on the prop fast, man does it just shoot off.
Saved me a hell of a lot of trouble.

Good idea.

We probably could have used this in GL on Rob's prop if the owner of the Bayview hadn't had a torch. Could have used the coffee maker in the room to heat up some water!

i like that idea way more than a torch. I have never had to do that, personally.
