I got a good deal on a second-hand Mosquito, but the heater cartridge was so stuck even Slice Engineering's own Heater Unseater didn't get it out. Thus, this tool was born, for when you are no longer asking nicely, but would also like to keep the block intact
Assembly & Usage
To assemble this thing, print the body of the tool such that the wires of your heater face the thinner side (mirror it in your slicer if needed). Material shouldn't matter too much, but I used PETG as that was already loaded in my printer. Then sink an M5 insert (I used the CNC Kitchen ones) into the hole on the thicker side, and find an adequately long M5 bolt (M5x20 worked for me)
Then, to use it, insert your Mosquito's block into the tool, ensure the heater hole is aligned with the bolt, and gronk down on it with a tool of your choice. The heater should then get forced out the other side
