I've used different methods until someone showed me an odd method
that seems dangerous but has ended up being the safest. What I do now is
remove the 6 screws holding the case together. Then I place it on a table
with the handle down and lift up the rear of the case a couple of inches and
drop it. So far with this method I've never so much as scratched a case
