Icon4 Ugh! 5513 insert issue.

While fiddling with the bezel and insert of my 5 mil series 5513, I popped out the insert. Not the first time, but this time I can't get the insert to back into the bezel.

I've tried the trick of using the edge of the table with a cloth, but no luck. Any other suggestions? Is using a touch of glue completely out of the question?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
Joe
