<div>Heat will most likely not work. The pin should be bronze and will
expand faster than the steel just making the fit tighter. When I had
this problem I was able to cool the pin enough for it to come out but I had to
use liquid nitrogen to get it cool enough. Perhaps a aerosol can of
coolest will work using the tube for the can nozzle to spray in the hole going
the length of the pin.</div>
