SWMBO has a moderately expensive hair dryer from Ion Professional Products, Model 301100 that has broken cord right at the handle.
If'en I could get it apart, I could cut a couple inches of, resolder and it'd be good to go...there's the problem in the "if'en"... :(
There were two screws in the handle and a couple tiny ones at the in and outlet screens that hold the case together. AFAICT there's nothing else mechanical. I can split the handle and pull but the top seam and most of that along the barrel bottom do not seem to want to separate.
On the most outside of chances, anybody's missus/daughters/whomever got one of these buggers and managed to make a repair?
I can pry w/ a small bar and it sorta' moves the pieces but I'm feared to try much more brute force else't it'll break in two.
Any other "secrets" have used to separate such animals? Is there any chance't they actually spot glued these things together? The front and rear screws were miniscule...
