Philco 86 restoration
#22

My strategy will bee to really feeze it overnight, with the large screw (the one I bought for the same purpose for 111) fully in.
Then I will attempt briefly immerse it into boiling water, using the screw as the handle.

My hope is that the thin metall shell wil quickly heat up and expand while the frozen tar block will remain frozen, and the two will separate. I think I should hear some clicks and pings while this is happening. Not more than a few seconds.
If it works, that will be a good technique to empty these boxes.

I don't think there is a danger of sputtering or explosion with this.

Another way is heat it with a gun but somehow I think it is not going to be efficient.

People who do not drink, do not smoke, do not eat red meat will one day feel really stupid lying there and dying from nothing.
