I don't have a dremel so I can't really do that =(. I tried melting it down today, but the object never got hot enough to actually make a difference. What I'm doing now will probably take forever, but it's the only thing I can think of now. I don't have the tools to do what Guardian suggested either. What I'm doing now is, straping sand paper around the tip of a screw driver and slowly shaving away at the flange, ugh.
