Picked up a few of the dental tools at your favorite store. Cost me about $50 in gas but worth it. Customer returned driver with the rattle and of course there was no rattle. I drilled out the new plug I installed earlier, poked around with my new Arnie Tool, and used the Rattle stop to hopeful

You can get dental tools at Harbor Freight - well, picks and mirrors. They're commonly used for a lot of small jobs. TFlan _ The New Busy is not the old busy. Search, chat and e-mail from

Arnie has a dental tool that he uses but he moved to Texas on me and I don't have a dentist appt. for a few months so I can't steal his. It was my own damn fault, I was paying attention and happily blasted the plug right through into the head. Warmed up the head a bit more, shook it around a bit

Ah geez - I went through this about 6 months ago with a Titleist driver. It wasn't a plug though, it was a piece of metal scraping that fell through the hole in the hosel that got there by the owner trying to drill out the shaft. Yep, an "easy job" the guy was told by an "expert". Just drill th

Depending on the type of plastic, it may not melt very quickly. I did get a plug out of a Cleveland 460 head that way. It took quite a while for the acetone to work the plug down to the point where I could get it part way out the hole and grab it with a pair of long needle nose pliers. In a p
