Everytime I do this, I swear, my heart stops! I get a pair of tweezers and grasp the pin right in front of the solder joint and slowly wiggle the clips back off the pins and every damned time they abruptly POP off the last bit of the clip and it scares me to death.I'm probably overly sensitive to it as I once pulled a clip clean off an old Pro-ject arm I had. I've got a RB-700 now and it just kills me everytime I have to do it.
If anyone has any suggestions or hints - please pass them along to me!
