Yeah, it is impressive how much abuse they take. I think they must have gotten weaker as the years went on, because all of the info for later stuff seems to indicate that you can just pop it out in 15 seconds. I am going to plasma gouge the rest out, I didn't for the others because the fall air has been making my compressed air VERY wet. You can get the head off in about 5 seconds with the plasma cranked up, but the slag goes everywhere.
