<p>[QUOTE="claycad, post: 1171989, member: 17987"]I've tried gently twisting the cases and I have cracked the corners anytime I have tried it. Sure, that'll work fine if I don't care about damaging the case, but I want to keep the case in perfect condition. Perhaps some people can twist them without breaking the case, but I have never done it without causing at least a tiny crack in one or more of the corners. I have never once caused damage to a case using an xacto blade. It certainly is possible if you're reckless with it, but I'll take my chances with a hobby knife over twisting the case anyway.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
