I wish I could break it down more, but i all I really have is hand tools. Is there an easy way to pop the parts out of the crutches? seems like it would be a real pain to try and pop off all the little plastic and steel bits by hand.

contains a lot of vacuum cord wire, computer harness wire, christmas lights with the bulbs snipped off... will any of this be a problem?
also when i first started filling it I chopped off all the transformers but later threw them back in, is this okay?
