No, my intention is not to have a winning argument, I gave a tip, another user also tried it and it worked, the video itself with a successfully DELID, but I noticed that the negative was only for this type of method, while the others are not bulletproof methods either.
I understand the concern, but it is an open forum, anyone can come here and use whatever tip they want. Those who work in maintenance know what can and cannot be done.
If someone does not seek technical assistance and does not want to spend money, they should do it at their own risk.
Installing a CFW carries the same risks as damaging a console, and there is a message there that says "Do it at your own risk".
As I always say, it will depend on the person to choose the method that gives them the most confidence.
In the DELID process, I didn't make any sawing movements, I just pushed the can into one corner until I could reach another corner with the entire length of the can.
Watch the video and adapt the process as you see fit. This is how I did it.
Sometimes the solutions are in the simplest things. I know how important it is to invest in professional materials. A paint spatula must be the most popular method, but let's be honest, during the DELID process, the board is under pressure because a rigid metal is being inserted between an IHS and a component and rigid metal is highly likely to scratch and/or damage the surface of the CELL.
I hope you succeed in your test.
Your own answer shows that you didn't even test it because the can is not sharp like a blade, it is flexible and when touching a more rigid surface it does not scratch, it is easier for it to bend.What are you suggesting seems dangerous as I wouldn't put anything razor sharp near the CELL
I talked about this in post #52, the rest is what's in the video, simple.So why don't you break it down for me. For example, how do I make the tool, I know it's from a can, but how do I make it? Once you have given me detailed instructions, I will attempt a delid using this method. I will then report back with the pros and cons of using this method.
See my comment in post #50, for me it's the best and cheapest method, I didn't say that for everyone this would be the best.You must understand we have had too many people on this site, give what they call "bullet proof methods with zero risk," only for people to try it and damage their console.

No need, if you want to do this acknowledge the creator of the video, it was through him that I learned about the method.So, I will review this method and report back. If I'm wrong, I will take my hat off to you.
In addition to leaving the board attached to a flat piece of wood, I made a piece of tin that was longer than the CELL and bent the sides to prevent it from twisting in the process or hurting my fingers.Until then, I will comment again once you have given me detailed instructions, and I have put those instructions into action and reviewed this method.
