    I assumed the same! But the metal was spot welded on the back and as I don't have a welder I didn't risk separating them! That's why I sat them in for around 10 mins so the wax could penetrate as much as possible

    Hey Shaz, it's actually just soldered on, take a very fine Japenese saw to it and it should split right up and then just heat the solder back up to reseal it
