Thanks for your reply Rob!  :daumenhoch:
Does it still require some gentle beating?

Andy. All of us who know Rob would agree with you that he does indeed need a gentle beating....... :2funny:

But yes, I always use the largest flattest item I can pressed against the bearing and then as Neil said, tap around gently like a clock face. You only want the bearing to move less than a millimetre at a time and it will eventually free and slide out.

When gently beating Rob I (and most others would agree i'm sure) use the same pricipal, ie use the largest flattest object. I mostly use Ed209 and hit Rob using him but i'm sure others have better tools for the job........  :shocked:
