What is the best way to remove Duco cement?

What is the best way you have found to remove duco cement from your wood arrows when re-fletching them?

[Eric Krewson]

I cut the feather off with a small snap blade box cutter and use a fine riffler file to gently file the remaining quill and glue back down level with the shaft. I don't remove every bit of the glue but get a nice flat surface to glue a replacement feather to.

I hold the shaft horizontal in the padded jaws of my bench vise while I remove the feathers. It takes me about 1 minute per feather to remove and resurface for a new feather.
