Taking apart old cob build

[ganjafather27]

Hey guys I have an build that I want to re frame and I'm wondering how you get the wires out of the metal ideal holders.

I've got these https://cobkits.com/product/ideal-holder-for-clu048/

Just want to know if there is a way to disconnect the wires without breaking anything

Yup, use the end of another wire and try to stick it in the same hole as your current wire to relieve the spring tension, then pull them both out. Once you get the first one the rest will be easy. I hope that helps.

Cool, much thanks!

a thin paperclip works well. both holes are sprung together so you can stick it in the adjacent hole to push the spring tab down
