Are guides underwrapped?Was color presever used on thread?I usually cut into epoxy and thread over guide feet and you can just peel off.Once the guide is out of the way grab the ends of the thread wrap and pull it from under epoxy.It should break apart as you go.You then only have to worry about the epoxy directly on the blank. I gently scrape this with fingernail or VERY CAREFULLY with single edge razor blade.I have been told to heat Epoxy but I would be really carefull doing this and I have never tried to as I know it will melt the blank
