For anyone who found themself in my situation - needing to easily pull the PCB off the 2510 fan (e.g. hotend fan) without mangling it. The PCB is press fit onto a plastic shaft and attempting to pry it can easily damage either the casing or the PCB (or both).Usage instructions:Remove the sticker from the backside of the fan (tip: attach it to a piece of baking wax paper for storage)Remove the tiny circlip from the exposed fan shaft, be careful not to lose it.Remove the fan blades (poke the shaft through after removing the circlip, it should slide out easily)Pull out the cables from the cable guideInsert the tool so that the jaws stick in between the PCB and the plastic behind. It helps to tighten the nut partway, so that the jaws just barely clear the PCB.Tighten the nut - it will tighten the grip as it reaches the fan casing, then it will pull out the PCB using the housing as leverage.I created it to solder a connector from a broken P1 hotend fan to a X1 hotend fan, as the complete X1
