i'm not trying to say anything bad about jeff's press as I just got the last 2 pieces to complete my set but couldn't a harder metal have been used in these extractors??

My guess: a harder metal would be harder to work with. He has mentioned that due to the thin walls, it is difficult to manufacture. I am guessing it would be even harder with a harder metal.

If it was a copper module that to is some soft stuff could have aggrevated the condition... So sad.

I am going to make a keychain out of the dead diode module+driver. Should be a good keychain fob and conversation piece.
