Hi Frank,
I agree with Vince’s comment-our team hasn’t experienced any issues when lifting the pipe out.  I would recommend checking the set up around the pipe and maybe the pipe itself.  It should be able to lift directly out of the area.

Hope that helps!  Good luck:)

Take a look at your green sides to make sure the wedges are properly placed underneath and properly mounted on the mat.

This is driving my team toward a gearing-down solution, which will certainly work, but my question is... should the model behave like that?  Are we experiencing what everyone else is experiencing?  It seems that this behavior is very dependent on the placement of the two green sides, and that placement causes a very distinct change in the solution required to remove the pipe.  I understand that model variability is part of the game, but I'm curious to hear what folks have been experiencing.
