and tales from a cold garage workshop...

and some bits on the bench…
my cam bearing puller tool...
 worked!...
 shit or bust*...
a little heat helps here...
and flushed with success and I'm not so cold now…

* a favourite saying of the old mechanic 
in the bike shop where I earned pocket money after school

NB 
 A claw hammer is made of hard brittle steel… It is hard so striking nails won't wear out the head.
It's head is much harder that a mechanics hammer… And it will chip when it is used on mechanics
chisels, punches ect… And the chip will try and put out an eye, or at least embed itself in your hide.
