I haven't done them, but I am pretty sure you will need to either press them or beat the hell out of them with hammers.

Re: New Georgia Member
if they have metal sleeves on the outside of them, you could burn out the centers, then cut the sleeves with a hacksaw.

Yeap - Done that a few times. Though sometimes those sleeves are tough to cut!LethalEthan wrote:if they have metal sleeves on the outside of them, you could burn out the centers, then cut the sleeves with a hacksaw.

Re: New Georgia Member
press is the best way. Most of the time is spent on set-up but once you get the cup sizes right pressing them out is a breeze.
