This is an interesting technique neatly executed but I'd strongly advise the use of a good quality particulate mask and gloves while sanding down the solder. The lead in the dust formed is definitely NOT something you'd want to inhale or ingest.

A guitar plectrum is a really useful tool for opening cases like this. Phone repair kits are available from Ebay very cheaply. They have all sorts of tools for opening plastic cases without damaging them and are handy to have around "Just in case". Great for phones, laptop bezels, satnavs - and Kindles!
