maybe a utterly stupid question but are the sides of the box glued or screwed?

If they are screwed just remove the one head side and it will work. And indeed it is important it is the same tool Mike bought.

hi Shengui,

   That doesn't look like the same tool. ??

   But, would it anyway have fit if you came at it from the other side (i.e. on the right in this picture?).

   I would repeat my concern that unplugging of the hybrids from T board without some way to apply the force directly to the connector body, is a very high risk. If we can avoid ever​ doing that to a production hybrid that would be much better. I think it is certainly worth a few days delay to resolve this. (My opinion anyway.)

   Sincerely,

       Gerard

Hi Mike and all,

I tried to use the new way to do unplugging of production hybrids and found the tool couldn't fit in the storage box shown at the attachment. So, I think that we couldn't use the new way during the module assembly.

Best,

Shenghui

Dear Mike, All,

indeed awesome find, I agree with Gerard, let's buy them for all places we do any  plugging/unplugging of production hybrids.

Cheers elke

Hi Mike - wow - awesome!

This is an extremely good find, for reducing what I think is one of the highest risk areas in FST.

I would strongly suggest that those doing any​ plugging/unplugging of production hybrids anywhere, stop work until they procure this exact tool. It will be worth any delay that incurs. Of course, not my decision, only recommending here.

I am attaching here your two photographs so others on list can see.

Thanks, sincerely,

     Gerard
