Use damp rag wrap around shaft over insert. Heat just field point only hot enough to pull insert out with pliers. Also you can buy 3/16 steel rod at hardware store 3' long take out nock punch insert out if in with super glue. Epoxy...have fun a combination will work may bugger up a shaft or 2 figuring it out!

I get a partner, then I heat a fieldpoint very hot while holding it in vicegrips.

Then I have him hold the shaft and I start screwing the field point in. Once we have 2-3 turns we pull as hard as possible while continuing to screw it in.

Trick is to get the heat to the glue very quickly while keeping it from the arrow shaft itself.
