Hah! I think I'll put the toweling on the top of the inverted skillet
with maybe one or two beneath it, out back on the concrete stoop, with a
regular hammer. I'm fresh out of rubber mallets. That skillet is one
of but two pieces of non-stick stuff I use. The other is my dutch oven
that's a must for making fruit butter.
I'll let you know how pounding the skillet works out. Thank you, Donald.
