I never had any luck with the removal tool either. After thousands of heat cycles, those bearings seem like they are welded in. As you may have noticed, it took a lot of pressure to break it loose and then it would move with less force.

Yes, you are right. It did not want to move at first, but once it got the pressure on it from the bread being packed in there, it slowly worked its way out.
