Removing Chassis safely

There use to be a DIY thread on removing chassis from the boot, and I just can't seem to find it anymore, does anyone have that thread favorited or something to that effect?

Sweet Lord! I'll be sending you those boot photos now. :P

what do you need to know about removing the chassis? I use this method:

Take off laces

Take out insole

Place chassis on flat surface

Use a pin punch and hammer to knock out rivets

Copper rivets - use chisel to create gap between chassis and washer, use a carpenter's plier (got one for $1) to leverage off the washers

Fastest I've done was 5min for a pair of skates. Mounting took about 1 hour if everything went right
