I use an old broken shaft. Heat the BH and insert the shaft. Pull the shaft out right away and wipe off the glue with an old rag. Repeat until the shaft comes out fairly clean. Then soak in acetone for a while.

Why do you want it out? Heat and reuse.

This is what I do as well.   Haven't had a problem, yet anyway.

Its not about the weapon used, its about the adventure involved.

Normally, that's what I do as well. The only time I did as explained above was when I had used some regular white hot melt glue. Since it didn't hold up more than a couple of shots, I wanted to make sure I got it out before I re-glued the heads on my arrows.
