Want a cheap "Case-splitting tool?"

go to your local hardware store and buy a small clamp.  The ones at
my hardware store have plastic orange handles and plastic orange tip covers.

Remove the tip covers.  Voila.  $2.79 at Somerville lumber in various
New England spots.  Your hardware store probably has it.  You still have to
be careful with the case, but it does the trick.

This clamp looks a little like the hand exercizers you see, but instead of
the coiled spring at the end, there's the clamp.
