Work on hard pins
  • If any pins are severely bent, you may need to use a pair of sharp angled tweezers to coax them up to an angle where they can be accessed by the utility blade as you work your way down the row.

  • If you're really in a pinch, you can modify a pair of tweezers to have a slightly curled tip.

  • If you don't have any tweezers handy, you can empty the lead out of a 0.5 mm mechanical pencil and slip the empty tip over a pin, using the pencil body to bend the pin back up into place.

  • Be careful using too much force—the long pencil body will give you more leverage than you realize.
