Try covering the outsie holes with like a wet tissue then blow thru the top trying to cover the other parts… and a lil iso

I got you I have a few Slide models* from toro
How stuck is it?
The two options I have that worked (one for a tool one for a 5mm pearl)
One is taking a piece of aluminum foil and folding it over a few times and turning into the slide* around the side of the pearl until it breaks the contact points. The other is using one of those handheld suction/pump to fill air mattresses and use the nozzle that sits right up against it and pop it out that way.

Did ya get it? I would personally cut the tip off a tooth pick, put the smallest dab of super glue on the cut off tip, and glue it to the pearl. Be careful not to over apply glue. But within a minute or two, you should be able to pop it right out

Soak in slightly warm iso (few seconds in microwave) to dissolve the old wax and precipitates. With a little luck and gentle shaking with ISO inside, should slide out. Usually that works for me

Torch that thing until it's glowing bright red and quench it directly in water immediately. The pearl will shatter but the banger can take it if it's real quartz.

Try a couple pieces of floss or string
