Removing ATX Pins from PSU

So I was trying to remove more ATX-style pins from the modular connectors on a PSU cable today, and was getting annoyed at the normal staple trick for removing them.

Ended up finding a much better way to do it, using the same staples

Cut a section of 3 staples off a strip. (Keep them together)

Cut off one leg just before the bend with wire clippers. (So you get an 'L' shape)

Make two of those

.
Then use those 3-staple-wide strips to remove the pins. I was fighting with single pins, but the triples pulled them all out immediately. (You can push them in with needle nose pliers if you want, with 3, they're strong enough to handle a little force.)
