    Hi Lucy there is a special tool for drilling the holes for the dowels and this can be used to drill out broken ones so as the unit can be reassembled. I have one of these tools and would be happy to help you out with this problem. Send me a pm

    I've tried:

    Shimming the pegs with pliers
    WD40
    Drilling a nail into them and using the claw of the hammer to attempt to pull them out
    Drilling them out.....

    NOTHING IS FUCKING WORKING!!!

    I'm pretty much sat here in tears with a shitty half dismantled unit that I'm about to set alight....

    Any ideas?????
