bit of wd and use a drift, no direct hammering on cups.

[theRuler]

the cup would collapse before the frame split.

Or just do what i do and take it into a bike shop (not Halfwits) and get it done properly 

[jT Racing]

some person(i forget who) made their own press out of drilled wood, threaded bar, washers and nuts, tighten with spanner and hey presto.

i know how you feel, i've just had to fit these headsets to two of my bikes and only managed to finish the job on one of them. You need a headset press.

[theRuler]

you could get away with 2 blocks of wood, some allthread (sell it at b and q) and big washers though?
