T'is the only way unless you can afford posh bike tools

though i did fit a BB with a work mate bench and some scrap wood once

[theRuler]

i hammer headset cups in with no damage to them
BB cups are easier

They are quite useful, but I've now decided that the easiest way is with a vice (don't forget the soft jaws to prevent marking your beautiful NOS headset)

always found using a vice with wooden plates was the most effective way. equal pressure applied to the cups so they go in nice n square with a little grease to help them on their way.
