   Reverse pincer
   
   Is there such a tool as a reverse pincer?
   
   Not reverse-action tweezers like at www.tdiinternational.com/produ… but one where the tips point outward, so that I can put it inside a micro-USB port, grab the holes on the sides and pull it out of the chassis?
   
   The port has been pushed 4 mm inside the plastic hull and no plugs on the market are long enough to reach it and charge the tablet.
   
   The people in the hardware market suggested I go to ifixit to check if this model can be opened up and closed again. I suspect it's glued rather than snapped together, but we'll see.

      Pincers, tweezers, pliers, tongs ... If "the dear child has many names" as the Swedish saying goes, people really like their grabby tools.

         Yeah, but you need an anti grabity tool.
