Heat gun to soften it up?


That's my next plan.

I've also wondered if I could smash it with a big hammer and anvil and get the pieces out without too much damage to the pipe.

I might be more inclined to used vise grips or a C clamp for the
smashing idea.


Ah, I like that. Seems worth a try.

I would have thought this to be a common problem, but I guess anyone using this stuff usually has plenty of extra around.
