DPT: HCL to Freebase

Migrated topic.
Simple.

Mix the DPT with a solution of the CaOH (There's a danger of getting TOO basic with KOH, and NaCl isn't a base at all). Dry. Redissolve in a non-polar solvent, strain out extraneous calcium salts, then dry to collect one's DPT freebase.
 
On another forum, I have read that you can add NaOH (1/7th of the amount of DPT) to water or isopropanol or ethanol. The method that uses water recommends inserting a stirring rod into the solution. The DPT freebase should stick to the stirring rod and can be collected that way. The method that uses alcohol recommends evaporating the alcohol, and scraping up the residue. Does anyone see any disadvantages in using either of these methods?
