If you've got a Dremel tool use a cutting disc and slowly cut the reel seet from end to end.Jus t be carefull so as to not cut too deep. after its cut through on one side use a screw driver to spread it a bit at the cut. then take a heat gun to break the epoxy loose. The reel seat will come loose. Remove it then heat the epoxy and scrape the epoxy off. I use a butter knife so as to not hurt the blank. I've done this loads of times . It works .
